Trailer Watch: Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival special

We have trailers for films you can see at this year’s Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival.

EVERY WEEK, WE bring you three trailers for films that are out this weekend.

The films might be on in the cinema, on streaming services or on television. This week, however, we have a special edition of Trailer Watch, with a focus on films that are showing at the Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival, which runs until 6 March.

We’ve listed some of the top films that are screening over the next five days. You can book your tickets at diff.ie, and explore the rest of the programme while you’re there.

This gory Welsh language horror, directed by Lee Haven Jones, centres on a mysterious young waitress tasked with serving privileged guests at a remote dinner party, where things quickly begin to unravel.
