Rating: 4/5 -- A quietly nasty gem that'll make you re-think British horror altogether. Full Review

Possum ultimately has to stand or fall on its own merits, and at heart is a serious and dark journey into the labyrinths of cruelty and abuse. Full Review

An ambitiously unpleasant and gorgeously stark film shot on 35mm. Full Review

Rating: 5/5 -- Holness conjures a disturbing view of what child abuse does to an adult later in life, mixing British kitchen sink realism with surreal dark fantasy. Full Review

The film has a striking aesthetic and atmospheric assurance that takes a particular British miserabilism into near-abstract terrain, not unlike Cronenberg's vaguely similar (if more rigorously plotted) "Spider." Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Holness firmly captures the feel of '70s British horror -- the oppressively close atmosphere is so powerful, you can almost smell the damp. Full Review

Product Description:

Having failed as a children's puppeteer, Philip (Sean Harris) returns to his childhood home as he has nowhere to turn to. There he must face his dreaded stepfather (Alun Armstrong) who taunts him and reminds him of his awful past. The longer Philip tarries in the town, the deeper the look into his gruesome past and mind we see. Written and directed by Matthew Holness as his debut film.
