COME one, come all, ladies and gentleghouls for our All Hallows Eve spooktacular this week at Ilkley Cinema. We dare you to take a seat in the pitch black and devour one of the most fiendishly terrifying horror films of the last decade: It.

Stephen King's ability to startle you with the power of his words is astonishing, and this was no different in the chilling adaptation of It starring Tim Curry almost 30 years ago. Now, it is the turn of Bill Skarsgård to take to the sewers as evil entity, Pennywise the dancing clown, who terrorises the children of Derry, Maine. Over the course of one summer that they will never forget, seven outcasts band together to fight this bloodthirsty monster, once and for all.

If a little jump scare isn't quite your cup of tea, then never fear, we have romance adventure film The Mountain Between Us, starring wonderful British actors Idris Elba and Kate Winslet. Strangers Ben and Alex find themselves thrust into the belly of an emergency when their plane crashes on a desolate mountain the middle of nowhere. Soon realising that help is not on the way, they embark on a perilous journey across hundreds of miles of wilderness, pushing each other to survive and a strong connection bonds them like they never thought possible.

Finally, we bring you the most aesthetically beautiful story ever portrayed on the big screen. As the first fully painted animated feature film, Loving Vincent tells of the mystery surrounding famous artist Vincent van Gogh's death in France, 1890. In the tens of thousands of stills painstakingly rendered by hand with oil paints, it brings the story of his complicated life and death fantastically to your eye, as though it were being told through one of Van Gogh's paintings itself. Words cannot portray just how mesmerising Loving Vincent is, but if it did, Van Gogh surely would have been a poet, not the phenomenal artist we still appreciate to this day.
