PSA: Note the date has been rescheduled to 25 February, due to heavy rains and wind predicted.An evening of spine-chilling horror awaits at Fed Square, presented as part of our free program of Silent Cinema with Live Scores for Open Air at the Square.
Jean Epstein’s mesmerising adaptation of the classic gothic horror story by Edgar Allen Poe features a new live DJ score blending post-punk, trip-hop, jungle and industrial techno with classical undertones, by Emelyne.
The Fall of the House of Usher is a French silent horror film, directed by Jean Epstein and based on the 1839 Gothic short story by Edgar Allen Poe. Melbourne-based DJ Emelyne reimagines this silent-era masterpiece by weaving together a dark, immersive soundscape, blending post-punk, trip-hop, jungle, industrial techno, contemporary club textures and classical undertones. Her modern score transforms Poe’s macabre vision into a hypnotic journey through shadow and sound.
The deckchairs will be out for this very special, free Big Screen and live performance experience – or feel free to bring a picnic rug and someone to hug.
Presented by Fed Square with support from Insite Arts, as part of Open Air at the Square.
