About us
The Toronto Film Society is one of Canada’s oldest film appreciation groups. It was originally formed to meet the demand for Canadian and international forgotten, banned, independent, and fringe sound and silent films, and to support their preservation and restoration. It is a volunteer run, membership driven, non-profit organization dedicated to the study of the artistic, historic, and social significance of cinema. Our expertly-curated films (from 1910-80, of various genres) are shown on the big screen, as they were meant to be enjoyed. Some are rare archival prints not easily obtained by the general public. Our extraordinary series, festivals, and events engage diverse cinephiles of all ages from Toronto and beyond.

·OnlineOnlineJoin us for our November screening! Our fabulous pre-show begins at 7:15 and the programme begins at 7:30.
When a group of travellers become stranded during a storm, they are forced to seek shelter in a mansion owned by a strange family. As the night goes on, the group discover that this family is far more disturbing than they'd realised. The Old Dark House (1932) is filled with suspense, dark humour, and a haunting atmosphere that is a must-see for fans of classic, pre-Code horror. This cult classic is directed by James Whale, best known for Frankenstein (1931), and stars an ensemble cast to die for!
