Director: Matt Routledge

Taunted by his peers for his Americanised 'cop' persona, Connor Phillips (Matt Routledge) is unequalled in the art of fighting crime. Turning chopsticks, trouser belts and socks into unusual weapons to combat crime, he is a walking advertisement for the Merseyside Police. However, the kung fu kicking detective's skills are put to the test when a new gangster, Felix Danno, places a nerve gas bomb in Liverpool's city centre, hell bent on revenge. After some deadly games of cat and mouse, Connor faces a race against the clock to locate the bomb and save his home town from destruction.

A sleepwalking Emma comes face to face with a mysterious entity The Wilding

Director: Adam Park

Year:

Told through leaked footage compiled by a whistle-blower, the film follows Emma and Richard, a couple thrust into the wilderness to survive for 100 days. Their confidence quickly turns to terror as a malevolent creature begins stalking them, ultimately killing Richard in a gruesome attack. Emma escapes and infiltrates the facility where the show's creators review their "progress." There, she discovers the chilling truth: the creature is part of their unholy science. With the odds stacked against her, Emma turns the tables - delivering brutal justice with unexpected aid from the very horror that was meant to destroy her. A darkly satirical blend of horror, sci-fi, and mockumentary, THE WILDING exposes the monstrous extremes the powerful will go to cheat death - and the human cost of their ambition.
