In Fear - Case Study 2.

In Fear (2013) Poster
"Driving, lost and tormented in the night, primal fears of the dark and the unknown give way to fear that you have let the evil in, or that it is already there."
The genre of the film is Horror/Thriller, it is a British film and is also an independent film. It was released on the 15th of November 2013.

The producer of the film was James Biddle.
Main cast included are, Iain De Castecker ( also known for little vampire), Alice Englert (also known for beautiful creatures) and Allen Leach ( also known for The Sweeney and downton abbey) 

Because the film is an independent film it is clear that there is a low budget, which is evident as there is not many advertising in comparison to big films such as Thor 2, however there is a trailer for the film and there are many reviews which have been written about the film online on big newspapers such as the guardian, Independent and websites like Timeout.



In Fear was shown at the Sun Dance festival which is where it recieved most of its recognition from.

16)  one reviewer quoted that the film "In Fear is a tale of a young couple on their way to a festival, whom detour, at the request of the male half, to a remote idyllic hotel. Things go horribly wrong. Tension and paranoia builds nicely in the opening third of the movie. Our couple get lost in a network of country lanes, supposedly leading to the hotel, which turn out to be a maze. As dusk approaches, confusion and anxiety turn to fear and dread. This is about as much as I can divulge without spoiling anything, however, the plot from this point onwards goes from irritating to ridiculous. Painful-to-view clichés and "they'd never do that" type gaffs litter the movie until the end which, when it comes, leaves you wondering if the writer got stuck for an ending. When it's tense, it works well but too much in this film went awry for me. I saw it at the FrightFest film festival and did speak to a lot of fans who loved it, but not I. I could be wrong, so it's perhaps worth checking out, if you like a claustrophobic, low-budget vibe in your horror but if not, I'd tread with caution."
