Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Giles Alderson crowdfunded this after his debut 'The Heart of the Country'—horror fans actually funded their own trauma.
Richard Brake's Credence fits the 'New Wave of British Horror' villain mold: working-class rage, theatrical menace, zero Hollywood polish. He's basically if Mike Leigh directed a slasher.
