In these unusual times, we’re all looking for films and TV shows to while away the time. On Friday April 17th, Indie thriller, The Host, arrives on all digital platforms.
With a fantastic ensemble cast featuring Derek Jacobi, Dougie Poynter, Ruby Turner MBE and Mike Beckingham (Simon Pegg‘s brother) highlighted brilliantly by the stylish cinematography of Oona Menges (daughter of legendary Academy-award winning DoP Chris Menges – The Killing Fields, The Mission). Distributed by Pearl Pictures Productions following their success sponsoring the London Critic’s Circle Film Awards this year – The Host is an exciting new addition to indie films and Hitchcockian thrillers available as entertainment for those stuck at home.
Synopsis:
Robert Atkinson is sick and tired of his everyday grind as a London banker. Hopeful for a better life, he takes a risk with the bank’s money that eventually leads him down a rabbit hole into a world he could not have imagined and one he definitely isn’t prepared for. With nowhere to run, Robert signs up for a trip where, as if by fate, he discovers he’s a pawn for a beautiful woman with shady secrets of her own. Fuelled by power players, seduction and violence, Robert falls into a deadly game of choice and consequence.
