This great event has had in its previous installments the presence of great stars such as
Quentin Tarantino (director of the new
“Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”),

There is no better time of the year to stay in Sitges, and live an incredible experience in one of
our luxurious villas, while enjoying an infinite cinematic cultural diversity with your loved ones in the beautiful city of Sitges.
Next, let’s remember the highlights that brought to us this
52nd Sitges festival 2019.
A Lannister found on the Mediterranean coast!
Ángel Sala, director of the festival, brought happiness to all fans of the mythical
Game of Thrones (GoT) series with a pleasant and unexpected surprise…. and that was
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, (interpreter of Jaime Lannister in the GoT series), that attended at the festival to witness the premiere of
Jonas Alexander Arnby’s new movie, called
“Suicide Tourist”, where the Lannister himself is among the main cast of actors.

This year, the festival surprised us with 2 great internationally Japanese films, by two great and renowned authors:
“Weathering with you” by
Makoto Shinkai, author of famous world-knewed films such as
“5 centimeters per second” or
“Your Name” (which premiered at the same festival last year), and
“One Piece: Stampede”, for all the faithful followers of the popular
manga / anime One Piece, by the mangaka
Eiichiro Oda.

But let’s not forget the main course and origin of the festival: The Horror.
This genre never disappoints when it relates to Sitges, and just to start, this year brought to us the return of
Rob Zombie, the former member of the metal band
“White Zombie”, already known for bringing great films to the festival with his new movie called
“3 from hell“. And this was only one of the various bombings of the theme that the festival brought us.
