The darker it gets, the more you see.
Acclaimed visionary director Philip RidIey (The Reflecting Skin, The Passion of Darkly Noon) returns to the screen after a fourteen-year absence with this chiIling tale of supernatural forces unleashing "a deIirious London nightmare" (Cath CIarke, The Guardian). Jamie Morgan (Jim Sturgess, Across The Universe) is a taIented young photographer whose disfiguring birthmark makes him feel an outsider in the rough patch of East London he calIs home.
Developing pictures he's taken in an abandoned Iot, Jamie sees a hooded figure peering from behind a window. Investigating, he stumbles into a horrific world of reptilian monsters posing as street gangs, violence inflicted on the most innocent, and a demon (Joseph Mawle) with the power to offer Jamie everything he's ever dreamed of - at a deadly price.
The superb British cast incIudes Ruth Sheen (Vera Drake), Timothy SpalI (The King's Speech), Eddie Marsan (Happy-Go-Lucky), and Clemence Poesy (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows). This "bracingIy ambitious mixture of Faustian fantasy and graphic urban thriller" (AlIan Hunter, The Daily Express) is Iike nothing else, heartstopping and darkIy beautiful. |
