Trinity Content Partners is delighted to announce the UK Digital premiere of seven acclaimed horrors and thrillers set to arrive this September.
HERESY
Garnering praise galore on its festival run Heresy is now set to make its highly anticipated UK digital debut on 28 September, courtesy of GrimmVision.
In a small Dutch village in the Dark Ages, Frieda (Anneke Sluiters) attempts to be a good wife, contributing to her community, saying her prayers, focusing on becoming a mother and doing what is expected of her.
But after a traumatic encounter with one of the villagers in the woods, a presence saves Frieda’s life, latching itself onto her and throwing her belief system into question. Returning from the woods unscathed, her community becomes suspicious that it was not God who brought her back safely, but a dark force cloaked in fog that lurks beyond the forest.
As the otherworldly creature follows Frieda, strange things start to occur in the village, and Frieda is accused of witchcraft. As she tries to defend herself, her rage only grows and her family and friends turn their backs on her in the name of God.
HERESY is a haunting tale of misogyny, bodily autonomy and belief that transcends time and language, wound into an unmissable, gut-wrenching, ‘stellar psychedelic folk horror’ (Dread Central).

LENORE
Australian writer-director David Ward explores the darkest corners of the internet in his acclaimed feature debut, putting a 21st century twist on Edgar Allan Poe’s famed poem of the same name. Following its acclaimed run on the festival circuit, Lenore is set to arrive on UK digital 21 September, courtesy of Seven Tales.
The film follows Max Wren (Nicholas Jaquinot – One Punch, Discontent), a troubled and isolated man who attempts to uncover the fate of Lenore (Ruby Duncan – Incoming: Words of War, Glitch) – a highly popular, yet deeply controversial, online personality who has seemingly disappeared. However, before he can complete his magnum opus, Max must confront a domineering antagonist from his past, two nosy police officers who have been tipped off about his antisocial behaviour and most concerning of all: a malevolent spirit that seems to live within his grotesque editing suite.
As he is propelled through the night, Max’s desperation curdles into madness and when the truth behind Lenore’s life and disappearance come to light, Max’s own sins can no longer stay buried as he discovers that some things are better left hidden behind a screen.
Blending atmospheric tension with emotional depth, Lenore is a haunting psychological chiller exploring grief and infatuation, highlighting how our own sense of self can be warped by our obsession with online identities and digital spaces, and just how dangerous these strange, new parasocial relationships can be.

THE STRANGER
Damien Ashley (Semolina Pilchard) brings a truly sinister performance to the screen, starring alongside British acting talent Jennifer K. Preston (The Wheel of Time, Hosts) and Isabella Percival (He Kills at Night). Following its acclaimed festival run and winning Grimmfest’s Work in Progress Award, THE STRANGER makes its highly anticipated arrival on UK digital on 14 September, courtesy of Trinity Content Partners.
When her husband is murdered in a house robbery that goes horribly wrong, Amanda (Preston) and her daughter Karli (Percival) move to an isolated bed and breakfast deep in the British countryside. But their peaceful new life is soon interrupted by the arrival of a mysterious-yet-enigmatic stranger, Kyle (Ashley), who initially asks to stay the night, then his story starts to change, and it soon becomes apparent that he isn’t who he says he is.
As the days go by, Kyle becomes more reluctant to leave, with Amanda and Karli growing increasingly concerned about their guest’s bizarre behaviour and their own safety. Things take a twisted turn when he confesses that he is being hunted by a group of supernatural killers, but is he telling the truth or is it all an elaborate scam?
Part family drama, part horror-thriller, with a creature feature twist, THE STRANGER is a tense and atmospheric spine-chiller that will stay with you long after the credits roll.

Opportunistic insurance lawyer Frank (Long) thinks he’s in for the time of his life when he goes out on the town to celebrate a soon-to-be promotion with work bestie Jeff (Faison). But their boy’s night takes an unexpectedly trippy turn for the worst when Frank is dosed with a hallucinogen that alters his perception and changes his life forever.
As his world turns upside down, Frank is thrown into a psychedelic quest through board meetings, nightclubs, shootouts and alternate dimensions, ping-ponging across reality, he finds himself on a mission searching for a missing girl, his wallet and most importantly… himself.

WHERE DARKNESS DWELLS
Following its festival run, this twisted tale starring Tara Perry (12 Hour Shift, The Fresh Beat Band), Katie Parker (The Fall of the House of Usher, The Haunting of Hill House) and Scott Dean (12 Hour Shift, In Flight) is set to arrive on UK Digital 21 September, courtesy of GrimmVision.
Trish Bostwick (Perry) is an ambitious reporter stuck producing pointless YouTube content. She’s finally given the chance to prove herself when she’s assigned to a recent disappearance, leading her to Wentworth – a secluded mental institute with centuries of history and a firm resistance to outside scrutiny.
Her investigation takes an unexpected turn when a knife-wielding stranger hijacks her car, causing Trish to descend into paranoia and madness. As reality fractures and motives blur, no one can be trusted, not even her own mind.
Blending psychological terror, survival and rituals, WHERE DARKNESS DWELLS plunges viewers deep into the unknown for a creepy, tense and thought-provoking genre bending chiller.

IGNITION
Bomb disposal officer Leon (Tommy Peter Walton) finds much more than he bargained for when he’s lured to an empty house in search of a suspicious package. As the device activates, a countdown is triggered, revealing a far more elaborate and sinister plan that has Leon trapped at the very centre.
After narrowly failing to neutralise the initial explosive, he is drawn into a sadistic game orchestrated by a mad man (Elijah James) who hides his identity through a demonic-looking television feed.
The television terrorist torments Leon, weaponising his knowledge of the would-be-hero against him: exposing his secrets, manipulating events beyond the house and forcing him into a series of psychotic tasks with deadly consequences. But with the clock ticking, which will explode first: the bomb or the bomb disposal expert?
IGNITION will set you alight in this high-stakes, edge-of-seat, explosive race against time where the truth is the deadliest threat of all.
