SPOTLIGHT Home Movie In this grisly horror film, a recovered video reveals startling footage of one family's descent into a world of madness and murder. Straight from the festival circuit, HOME MOVIE is available exclusively On Demand from IFC Festival Direct. www.ifcfilms.com/viewFilm.htm?filmId=1176I don't like horror movies...the trailer alone was disturbing to me...so I won't be watching this one.

The Modernciné gang gave us the word that their latest fright feature Home Movie has its world television premiere tonight on IFC Festival Direct. There’s also a new website open for the film, which you can see here.
Written and directed by Christopher Denham, who starred in Modernciné’s previous Headspace, Home Movie is a vérité chiller that documents the breakdown of a family through the lens of their camcorder, as the misbehavior of children Jack and Emily (Austin Williams and Amber Joy Williams) slowly takes on increasingly disturbing levels. Adrian (Heroes) Pasdar and Cady McClain play the parents; the film has won acclaim at prior festival engagements, including Montreal’s Fantasia and the just-concluded Toronto After Dark. For more info on where to see Home Movie and to check out the trailer, click here, and look for more coverage in a future issue of Fango.

Review by: Dr. Nathan
Rating: 10 out of 10
If you’ve ever thought it might be a nice family treat to buy a home video camera and capture all those cute Kodak moments of kiddie kinship, holidays, birthdays, and sitting down at the dining room table to carve up your parents, then Home Movie is the perfect antidote for that misguided idea. This truly disturbing movie, written and directed by Christopher Denham, is thus far the only Tad premiere Dr Nathan has experienced which actually, really gave me that deep-down visceral sense of dread and foreboding. Fantastic. And, equally surprising, what at first appears to be detrimental to the movie – shaky handheld camera and very bad sound – turn out to be indispensable to the general zeitgeist of the story itself.
And what a story.
The picture-perfect Poe (more)

[My thanks to regular Twitch reader Alain Chouinard for this review of Christopher Denham’s Home Movie. Caught this one with the lady-friend whilst in Montreal and it absolutely freaked her out ...]
As a twisted dark comedy/drama shot as a home movie in the vein of recent “reality” horror films like [Rec], Home Movie explores the gradual destruction of the Poe family as it is confronted with the extreme ruthlessness of its two ten-year-old children, Jack and Emily (Austin and Amber Williams). Faced with this inexplicable evil as well, psychologist Clare (Cady McClain) and Lutheran minister David (Adrian Pasdar) helplessly document the irrational chaos produced by their children with their video camera while simultaneously attempting to contain and define it with the tools of their trade: religion and psychotherapy.
