Don't worry if you missed out on the sell-out Under the Radar films, which will now be screened as part of the Best of the Fest on Sunday 29 June.

It's a great chance to catch the acclaimed new strand of the Festival which has won plaudits around the globe.

All six films will be screening as part of Best of the Fest on Sunday 29 June. Tickets will be available to buy from Monday 23 June at midday.

The new strand at the Festival celebrates underground cinema, or as The Scotsman's Alistair Harkness described them, "movies one can easily imagine being described as future cult classics."

The films running in Under the Radar are:

Bigga than Ben: A Russians' Guide to Ripping Off London

Narnia star Ben Barnes stars in this low-fi gem following the exploits of two free-wheeling Russians.

Blood Car

Alex Orr's debut film was a sell-out when first screened, and this vehicular horror is sure to become a cult fixture.

Crack Willow

Edinburgh College of Art graduate Martin Radich turns out an uncompromising psychodrama which will turn heads.

Spike

A gothic horror which is a visual revelation for a low budget feature. Inspired and imaginative.

Strange Girls

The terrible twins of Rona Mark's shocker go way beyond finishing each other's sentences.

The Third Pint

A fantasy travelogue follows a man who simply vanishes through five cities. Alternately hilarious and thought-provoking.

The full Best of the Fest line-up will be announced on Monday 23 June at 10:00, and tickets will be available to buy at midday on the same day.
