Stars: Nicholas Tucci, Camilla Rutherford, Sandra Andreis, Davi Santos, Page Ruth, Colleen Heidemann, Malik Ibheis, Carl Prekopp, Keaton Tetlow, Lida Fox | Written by Nadia Doherty, Ben Charles Edwards | Directed by Ben Charles Edwards
[Note: With the film out this week on digital, here’s a reposting of our review of Father of Flies from its Grimmfest screening last year]
Father of Flies comes from the minds of writers Nadia Doherty and Ben Charles Edwards (also directing) and attempts to tread the same creepy path of films such as Hereditary, The Lodge and The Blackcoat’s Daughter. The film tells the story of a young boy and his older sister who suddenly see their mother pushed out of the family home and a new woman replacing her. The new woman has a sense of creepiness about her (not just a dodgy accent) and there might just be something supernatural occurring.
There are times when the movie does make it work with that dark, slow and occasionally tense tone that...

Story of a troubled family aims for the higher registers of horror, but for all the jump scares doesn’t quite make it
This low-budget work by British director Ben Charles Edwards is a bit all over the place, despite its restricted use of locations. It revolves around an unhappy American family in an isolated house where things go bump in the night, leaving youngest child Michael extremely worried about what’s under his bed. Unfortunately, dad Richard (Nicholas Tucci) is too busy going off on business trips to help, and Michael’s big sister Donna (Page Ruth) has her own things going on, including getting drunk and hating on frosty Coral (Camilla Rutherford), formerly the live-in nanny but now pregnant with Richard’s child and about to become Michael and Donna’s stepmother.
Coral certainly doesn’t make it easy for the kids to bond with her, given her propensity to use a creepy,...

"Someone's been inside this house!!" 101 Films has revealed an early promo trailer for Father of Flies, an indie horror thriller from filmmaker Ben Charles Edwards. This premiered at numerous genre festivals last year, including Grimmfest & Raindance in the UK and Screamfest in the US. A haunting tale of family life. A vulnerable young boy finds his mother pushed out of the family home by a strange new woman, and he must confront the terrifying supernatural forces that seem to move in with her. A troubled father brings home a new woman but something is strange about her - what is this haunting supernatural force and what does it want? "This evocative tale is unrelentingly suspenseful, eerie, and sinister, packed with frights and anxiety-filled terror." The indie film stars Camilla Rutherford, Nicholas Tucci, Sandra Andreis, Page Ruth, Keaton Tetlow, Davi Santos, and Malik Ibheis as "Pogo". This looks much better than it sounds,...

First shots often sum up much of the drama ahead. Bowing June 12 on Orange TV in Spain, “The Head’” a signature series of The Mediapro Studio, is no exception.
Featuring among key cast Alvaro Morte, “La Casa de Papel’s” Professor, and Japanese pop idol Tomohisa Yamashita, written by Alex and David Pastor and directed by Jorge Dorado, the six-part South Pole survival thriller kicks off with a sustained aerial shot swooping over cruelly barren Antarctic expanses, then down to a small but raucous crowd partying outside the Polaris VI Scientific Research Station.
Still the same apparent shot, it shimmies past Morte – who plays the Station’s belligerent cook and is gamely serving hamburgers – then morphs seamlessly into the subjective Pov of Johan (Alexandre Willaume), the Station’s second-in-command, as he nonchalantly grabs a bottle of wine and fair sprints into the Station.
