We’re unable to stamp Rabbit Trap with an actual 2023 production start date so this guesstimate might be completely off but short film and commercials director British-Australian Bryn Chainey has had a steak knife firmly planted in the genre for a while now (his short Kill Your Dinner premiered at the Berlinale in 2016). With a horror-experienced producing team behind him, this set in 1970’s Wales horror film stars Dev Patel and Rosy McEwen.
Gist: This is a 1973-set psychological horror film.

Berlinale receives record number of submissions.
A total of 63 feature-length and short films produced or co-produced in 35 countries have been invited to participate in the two Berlinale (Feb 11-21) competitions Generation Kplus and Generation 14plus.
The programme, aimed at children and youths, was selected from around 2,000 feature-length and short films submitted to Generation this year, which is more than in any year previously.
The selected films shed light on and challenge the nature of contradictions such as being child-like and being an adult, what is forbidden and what is permitted or the difference between subjective and objective reality.
“Young people world-wide are constantly confronted by dystopic realities not of their own making,” said Maryanne Redpath, head of Generation. “In the diverse films of this year’s programme we see them taking matters into their own hands.”

TorinoFilmLab awards more than $460,000 to several upcoming projects.
Laszlo Nemes’ Sunset was among several titles to win funding at this week’s 8th TorinoFilmLab Meeting Event (Nov 25-27).
The coming-of-age thriller, centred on a young woman in Budapest before the First World War, was awarded a grant of €50,000 ($53,000).
The film marks the second feature from Nemes, whose debut Son Of Saul won the Grand Jury Prize and Fipresci Prize when it premiered at Cannes in May and is tipped for Oscar success.
Sunset will be produced by Gabor Sipos of Hungary’s Laokoon Cinema, the production company behind Son Of Saul.
Speaking to ScreenDaily in June, Nemes said Sunset will be set in Budapest in 1910, when the city was cosmopolitan, tolerant and full of inhabitants from different cultural and religious backgrounds.
“[The Nazis] killed all of that. The 20th century transformed Hungary into an ethnically pure country in a way,” said Nemes.

How different cultures throw funerals was never a subject we even grazed over in school for reasons why we are sure students understand. The topic might not be in the curriculum, but it does still interest us. This curiosity doesn’t only reside within us, but also the Danish sextet, Alcoholic Faith Mission. The band recently released their music video for “Legacy,” off their Ep, “And the Running with Insanity”. They undeniably ran away with craziness on this video, which was directed by Bryn Chainey. The “Legacy” video centers around a young girl’s fascination with death and eclectic funerals. A human death did not trigger this obsession, but instead the death...
