Four young offenders and their workers spend a weekend in the remote Yorkshire village of Mortlake, which prides on keeping itself to itself. A minor incident with locals rapidly escalates into a blood-soaked, deliriously warped nightmare.
Practical Effects
Gloriously grotesque creature effects and visceral gore.
Acting
Seamus O'Neill's unhinged Jim steals every deranged scene.
Production
Mortlake feels authentically rotted, a character unto itself.
Director
Alex Chandon
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Alex Chandon previously made cult splatter films in the 90s; this was his return after nearly a decade.
The film deliberately weaponizes 'Hoodie Horror' tropes against the middle-class reformers, inverting the genre's usual class politics.
