Our film this month is a real cracker – ‘3615 code Pere Noel’ – described as ‘Die Hard meets Home Alone’ this never-before-seen 1989 French delight will be one of the highlights of anyone’s season.

As always our trailer trash continues with an epic 6th in a row all-new Christmas theme whilst our short promises some traditional chills. Add to this mix the usual pictures, music, quiz and some other festive touches and you have one unmissable date.

So come on down on December the 12th and let The Duke entertain you in true Christmas fashion.

Hardboiled!

NOVEMBER 28TH AT 19:00, KING’S CROSS SOCIAL CLUB

November is a cold, tough month so The Duke invites his audience to join him in a celebration of the toughest films ever to appear on the silver screen!

Yes, this month, The Duke celebrates all that is hardboiled: men, women, villains, lackeys, liquor – tough things that like to play fast and rough, leaving no room to breathe. Look, see – this is the month The Duke brings together all those vicious bastards we all love to hate.

However in true Duke style the film we’ve chosen will not be familiar to anyone – a 1973 oddity from Egypt called ‘Kuwait Connection’ (AKA Wolves Don’t Eat Meat!) – the bastard child of Italian crime films and French art-house featuring an assassin with a gold sniper rifle, copious amounts of violence and wall-to-wall sleaze. This will be the FIRST TIME EVER this amazing title has been screened out of its home-country and the first time it has been made available with any sort of English subtitles.

If that wasn’t enough The Duke has amassed tough guy trailers to make you wince – hold on to you whisky glass because these are sure to drive you to the edge!

As usual we will also have our short film full of visceral action, music to plan a heist to and a quiz full of the usual suspects and music that all the known villains are grooving to!

So come on down this November and join The Duke is a short, sharp ride that’s sure to end badly for everyone!
