Check out this first look clip and poster for the new British horror thriller Hounded, which is set to be unleashed at this month’s FrightFest in London. The horror even takes place over the bank holiday weekend and the tail end of next week.
Hounded comes to the screen later this year – actually on Halloween, October 31st, but will premiere at the Prince Charles Cinema off Leicester Square in central London on August 26th.
A lavish manor house was supposed to be just another job for Chaz (Malachi Pullar-Latchman, Shark Bait) and his crew of South London thieves. Easy pickings… or so they thought. But they unknowingly walk into a trap to be used as pawns for the owners’ sinister aims. The crew are prey for a deadly hunting game over the estate, fleeing across abandoned farms, deep woodland and rivers in an attempt to survive. Both sides will be pushed to their limits in a no-holds-barred fight for survival as the idyllic British countryside becomes a battleground for a class war made flesh. This is the British Squid Game. Hounded is directed by Tommy Boulding in his feature debut and written by Dean Lines & Ray Bogdanovich (The Hatton Garden Job), Hounded also stars Samantha Bond (James Bond, Downton Abbey), James Lance (Ted Lasso), Nick Moran (Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels), James Faulkner (Game of Thrones), Larry Lamb (Eastenders) and Hannah Traylen (Boiling Point).
