From Horace Walpole and Mary Shelley to Clive Barker and Garth Marenghi. From The Haunted Curiosity Shop to Shaun of the Dead. British horror has revolutionised and revitalised the genre. This is the community to celebrate this. Local horror for local people, no-tails also welcome.

The Tormented, which was shot in Royal Victoria Country Park in Netley, has now been released on Prime Video.

The 84-minute feature film follows a widow and her friends that travel to a sacred land, before horrific visions and living nightmares begin to torment the group with their pasts.

Written and directed by Isaac Lawrence, 25, a filmmaker from Southampton, the movie premiered at Harbour Lights Picturehouse in August 2024.

The turn of the year saw the film reach a worldwide audience after it was released on Amazon Prime, which has more than 13 million subscribers in the UK alone.

“It’s a dream come true,” said Isaac, who was inspired by the Silent Hill game series – which sees the main character lose their daughter in an eerie fictional town – when making the film.

I'm watching it now and it's terrible.

Oh I didn't assume it'd be any good!

Lol, it's beyond bad. It might even be awful enough to watch, if you are into that.
