FRIGHTFEST 2024 PREVIEW: DERELICT
British independent movie DERELICT, a harrowing and violent thriller of revenge and empowerment, will have its world premiere at the Odeon, Leicester Square, London as part of this year’s FrightFest Film Festival celebrating its 25th Anniversary.
Filmed exclusively in Herefordshire in the UK on a budget of just £35k, DERELICT focuses on a daughter’s revenge and the circumstances that have led to the murder of her father. Soaked in the tradition of the British film noir, a series of unusual characters are thrown into situations that will have repercussions beyond their imagination.
Abigail is a socially isolated, angry young woman who is struggling to come to terms with the brutal murder of her father some years prior. When she learns that one of her father's murderers is about to be released from prison, Abi sets herself on a path of revenge. Matt is a young man whose life gets turned upside down by the return of his brother Ewan. The destinies of these lost souls crosses in ways that will tragically shape their lives.
The Derelict crew consists of producers Sarah Zaurin, Andy Piper, Pete Bird and Todd Rodgers. Michael Mackenzie and Kat Ellinger will both be working on the screenplay, Michael Sànchez will be composing the score and sound engineering by Ryan Jordan.
The talented cast features Suzanne Fulton (Cold Feet, Mum Said), regular LBS Films contributors Mikey JL Coombes and Pete Bird (both Wyvern Hill), Dean Kilbey (Boiling Point, Manfish, Top Boy), Nick Cornwall (Devils, Sky Sharks), Corinne Strickett (Housewarming), Joe Nurse (Santa Baby), Darren James King (April, Essex Boys: Law Of Survival), Ben Manning (The Snarling, Cursed), and Stacey Coleman (Polterheist, Emmerdale).
Director Jonathan Zaurin says:
It’s an honour to be selected for a festival as respected and important as FrightFest and we can’t wait to show everybody what we’ve been working on for the last 2 years at the Odeon in Leicester Square, a location synonymous with world premieres!
