8.50 pm - sunday 28th August - kill list

UK Premiere

Director Ben Wheatley. Starring Neil Maskell , MyAnna Buring, Michael Smiley, Emma Fryer, Harry Simpson, UK 2011, 90 mins.

From the DOWN TERRACE team comes a darkly funny, brutally visceral and surprising tale of terror. Ex-soldier-turned-hit-man Jay hasn't worked in months and his unemployment and general lack of social graces are taking its toll on his marriage. Then his pal Gal comes up with an assignment for a mysterious client who slowly doles out their targets one at a time. But as the hits progress so does Jay’s increasing bloodlust. Soon, the act of killing becomes less a job and more an act of sadistic righteousness – until Jay's already tenuous moral compass spirals out of all control and the rediscovery of his true nature causes a descent into total hell. Progressing confidently from uneasy character study to intense crime thriller to stark shocker, director Ben Wheatley’s unique chiller is one of the year’s unforgettable horror highlights.

KILL LIST will be preceded by SHIFTER. Directed by Ben Parker. 6 mins.
