We're starting off strong with this one. Dear readers, let me introduce you to In Fabric, a film about a killer dress.

No, you did not read that incorrectly, this is quite literally a film about a killer dress. 

Written and directed by Peter Strickland - the glorious mind behind Berberian Sound Studio and The Duke of Burgundy, both of which come highly recommended - In Fabric is a slow-burning spookfest whose central premise is nowhere near as silly in practice as it first sounds. 

The film tells the story of Sheila, a recently divorced bank teller who during a bout of depression and self-loathing buys a stunning red-dress in a bid to restore her self-confidence. However she soon begins to realise this dress is like no-other as it has a tendency to maim whoever wears it, leading to many dress-based horror shenanigans. 

In Fabric was fairly divisive on release, with many critics lavishing praise on its atmosphere and performances but some were quick to criticise its slow pace and general absurdity, genre aficionados however we keen to lap up it's giallo-inspired weirdness and the film - much like the rest of Strickland's work - has amassed a dedicated cult following.
