Everyone loves a good movie, and everyone loves a good party, so it seems the perfect combination of events to have some fun with a good selection of your nearest and dearest.
The first step is to think of a theme, or a film genre that you think your friends will enjoy.
Should it be a horror fest of fear that brings you all together in your love of gore? Or should it be an animation fest bringing everyone together for their love of comedy and great characters? Another question to ask yourself is: How many films should be shown? Or should there be a choice of a few that your friends select from? Do you want people to dress up as their favourite characters? Or come as they are? Do you want to provide food and drink for everyone? Or everyone bring their own choice? Once you have defined your ideal film party, and your guest list, start asking your friends to come over and enjoy the festivities with you! Some film party ideas: Horror - choose five horror films that will scare your friends senseless, offering booby prizes for the first to scream and flinch etc and a macho award for the one that makes it through them all without twitching! Not a choice for the wimpy among us! Romance - invite your girlfriends over for a Rom Com fest with some great wine and a few laughs together, a real girls' night in.
Kids - show a great selection of kids' films that everyone will enjoy, and it keeps the kids occupied whilst the adults can have a great get together as well.
Action - get everyone over to dress like their favourite action stars, play the best films from those stars and vote at the end for the greatest action hero ever! And the greatest dressed! Analysis - get a classic film that has been remade and watch them both one after the other, a great conversation starter that gets a party going.
The possibilities are endless and there is so much scope for further film parties, even taking it in turns at each other's place with different themes and films.
Try a film party today, and have some fun with your friends!
