Horror film AFFLICTED has a twist on the old found-footage format by setting up the whole movie in the first person. The POV movie, which apparently won a shed-load of awards at Fantastic Fest last year, including Best Picture, Director, and Screenplay in the horror category, will debut in American cinemas on the 4th April. There’s no UK release for the film set as yet, but we’re hopeful of this getting at least a direct-to-DVD release sometime later in the year.
This terrifying horror thriller follows two best friends who set out on the trip of a lifetime around the world. Their journey, documented every step of the way, soon takes a dark and unexpected turn after an encounter with a beautiful woman in Paris leaves one of them mysteriously afflicted. Winner: Best Picture (Horror), Best Screenplay (Horror), Best Director (Horror) at Fantastic Fest, and recipient of awards of recognition from the Toronto International Film Festival and the Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival. AFFLICTED is one of the most suspenseful and original action horror debuts in a generation.
Derek Lee and Clif Prowse write and direct.
