Following the death of her estranged father, Iris learns she has inherited a run-down, centuries-old pub. She travels to Berlin to identify her father’s body and meet with The Solicitor to discuss the estate. Little does she know, when the deed is signed she will become inextricably tied to an unspeakable entity that resides in the pub’s basement – Baghead – a shape-shifting creature that can transform into the dead.
Practical Effects
Baghead's prosthetic design — slimy, sad, deeply uncanny.
Acting
Freya Allan carries grief and terror with equal weight.
Production
The pub itself: decaying character, cursed architecture.
Director
Alberto Corredor
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Expanded from Alberto Corredor's 2017 short film of the same name, which won Best Horror at Fantasporto.
The pub setting deliberately echoes British 'local' culture — community spaces corrupted into sites of private grief exploitation.
