NEON Teases New British Horror Flick 'ENYS MEN' With Unsettling Trailer
Neon today has released the first look at Mark Jenkin’s next is the Cornish-set horror film Enys Men, and by the looks of the trailer, we’re in for a crazy ride.
NEON was able to pick up the rights to the 1973 based flick where a wildlife volunteer descends into a terrifying metaphysical and eco-sophical journey that challenges her grip on reality and pushes her into a living nightmare.
In Enys Men,
“A wildlife volunteer on an uninhabited island off the British coast descends into a terrifying madness that challenges her grip on reality and pushes her into a living nightmare. Evoking the feeling of discovering a reel of never-before-seen celluloid unspooling in a haunted movie palace, this provocative and masterful vision of horror asserts Mark Jenkin as one of the U.K.’s most exciting and singular filmmakers.”
Jenkin wrote and directed, with the original story idea by Jenkin and Adrian Bailey. Mary Woodvine and Edward Rowe star.
“Enys Men was shot on 16mm color negative using a 1970s clockwork Bolex camera and post sync sound. This was to achieve the feeling of discovering a reel of never-before-seen celluloid unspooling in a desolate, haunted movie palace.”
No current date has been set yet, but we can expect the flick to wash ashore sometime in 2023.
