I honestly don't see the point of this? It's actually well shot, the visuals and the camera work are pretty good. Sound quality is decent also.
Whoever made this however has zero idea about story. It's an absolute mess and it barely makes sense, I hate torture pics and love sci fi mindbenders. This happens to be a poor mash up of both.
The story makes so little sense I gave up trying to understand it half way through, It's like the maker had some vague idea what a film should be about but has had no real guidance in what films should be like.
So to the creator, you're lucky there are morons who will pay for this nonsense to be shot so well but you're a rubbish deadbeat writer.

I watch far too many horror films. And there an awful lot out there. It's a market saturated to the point of no return to be honest.
Whilst most are exactly the same and follow pretty much the same formula, this one breaks the mould very well. It's not ever really like your typical gritty "Film4" horror. The best way I can try and describe it is a dark comedy film that isn't really quiet comedy. But it's never really 100% serious which is what I like about it.
It's a "League of Gentlemen" does horror kind of thing. Indeed Andy Nyman and Paul Whitehead appear to give it that kind of feeling.
It is however really quite unsettling. Keeps you sucked in til the very last, very, weird end. Just watching it for the third time and it's not getting worn. Second time I watched it was late on Xmas Eve with my dad one year with a beer and some Lindt. Excellent.

Saw this on a streaming site and thought it would be good. Guessed it would be a bit gritty and miserable and Film4 like (which is no bad thing, Film4 is fantastic!).
However its a creature purely of its own. I'm not Northern and I sometimes get a bit annoyed that Northern films make out the North is better than the South. Just as the South does the North (I'm a Midlander so I don't care).
There was simply nothing I could say against this film. It was 100% genuine, the writing and story were top class. Apparently neither of the two lead performers had acted before and the lad who plays the lead now has other business ventures in the local area (my great aunt lives there). You couldn't tell they were debut folk!
The shooting and scenery were beautiful/real and the music was great but not OTT.
Fantastic.
