Award winning independent film company Revolver Entertainment releases the gritty crime thriller GBH on DVD from 1st October 2012. The film is a powerful, no-holds-barred British tale of criminality, morality, justice and vengeance set amidst the stark and violent backdrop of the 2011 London riots and we’ve got two copies of this great film to give away.
Producer and directed bySimon Phillips (THE RISE AND FALL OF A WHITE COLLAR HOOLIGAN), GBH takes as its core premise the age-old battle between good and evil, and sets the modern, urban story on the harsh streets of West London, as the capital is battered and burned during the infamous London riots. Boasting a talented veteran and newcomer British cast, including Nick Nevern (THE SWEENEY) Kellie Shirley (EASTENDERS) Jenna Harrison (AGAINST THE DARK) Roland Manookian (ROCKNROLLA) Con O’Neil (FRANK) Steven Berkoff (A CLOCKWORK ORANGE) and Peter Barrett (JACK FALLS), the story centres around lead character Damien performed by Nick Nevern, who is a London ‘copper’ with a criminal past he’s trying to forget.
Before signing up to the police force he ran with a vicious football gang with a penchant for violence and intimidation. Now that Damien is on the other side of the law, he faces a tough decision – side with his old crew or protect London as it burns and rioters run amok? Things are complicated further when he becomes romantically involved with fellow police officer Louise (Kellie Shirley), and is helpless to protect her when she is viciously beaten and raped by one of his former gang members. Damien decides to take matters into his own hands, with brutal and devastating consequences.
Billed as the British thriller film of the year, GBH packs a punch like no other and depicts the gritty realities of inner-city deprivation and social disillusionment, as a city is torn-apart and one man desperately fights for justice. Watch the trailer:
