Director Ben Wheatley will be attending the Ramaskrik Film Festival this October. Ramaskrik will screen his new roadshow-distributed film Bulk as well as the modern classic Kill List from 2011.

Ben Wheatley is an award-winning and critically acclaimed director, screenwriter, editor, and producer with deep roots in genre cinema. Ramaskrik has followed Wheatley's career since Kill List was screened as part of the Ramaskrik programe at the Kosmorama Film Festival in 2012. We later screened both Sightseers and ABC’s of Death in Oppdal in 2012, and most recently In the Earth in 2021.

“We have followed Wheatley throughout the years and have always looked forward to his next film to see what he comes up with. We know it will be genre cinema, that it will hover somewhere on the edge of horror, and that it will have a style entirely its own,” says Festival Director Morten Haagensen.

His filmography spans an impressive range of genres, from the more distinctive works Down Terrace, A Field in England, and High-Rise to more commercial productions such as Free Fire, Rebecca and Meg 2: The Trench.

At this year’s Ramaskrik October 14th – 18th, audiences will experience the full breadth of Wheatley’s work, from his breakthrough film Kill List, a harrowing and realistic folk horror classic, to the highly playful, entertaining, and experimental sci-fi action film Bulk (2025).

Bulk has been released theatrically in the United Kingdom through a travelling roadshow, with Ben Wheatley and producer Andy Starke appearing in person. Now Ramaskrik becomes another stop on “The Never Ending Bulk Tour” in Oppdal, with Wheatley attending the festival. This is something to look forward to.
