Burning Bright - UK Exclusive Clip

Earlier today, Craig put up his review for Burning Bright which he saw earlier today at the 2010 Film4 FrightFest. Momentum saw the review and thought that we needed a UK exclusive clip to go along with it so were kind enough to give us one!

Burning Bright is directed by Carlos Brooks and has a cast which includes Briana Evigan, Garret Dillahunt, Meat Loaf, Charlie Tahan, Preston Bailey, Mary Rachel Dudley and Peggy Sheffield. It’s released on DVD September 6th and you can order your copy here.

Film4 FrightFest 2010 - Burning Bright Review

With just a little knowledge of English poetry you may get the impression from the title that this film has something to do with tigers and you’d be right. One tiger in particular, as the film has a premise that screams high concept exploitation. Kelly (Briana Evigan) awakes from a nightmare to a real life nightmare where she is trapped in her house with a very angry and very hungry Bengali tiger.

Kelly’s stepfather Johnny (Garret Dillahunt) has bought the tiger, using the money set aside for Kelly’s autistic brother’s special schooling, as he is planning to open a safari park at his house. This part of the film is a little far fetched and, as it is probably immediately obvious, this and a few other plot points are a little contrived which makes the plot a little hard to swallow. It is a testament to the filmmaking on display though that the film is gripping and enthralling despite this. Amusingly the seller of tiger is played by Meat Loaf in a small role that I’m sure helped out with the financing but he is also quite entertaining.

Film4 FrightFest 2010 - Day One – Hatchet II, Primal & Dead Cert

The first day of Frightfest began with the disappointing news that the BBFC had demanded cuts on both I Spit on Your Grave  and A Serbian Film. The cuts on I Spit on Your Grave totalled 43 seconds and the cuts on A Serbian Film were 3 minutes and 48 seconds.

Frightfest organisers decided that the cuts were too much for A Serbian Film and decided to pull the film, but have decided to go ahead with the screening of I Spit on Your Grave. Very disappointing news, especially considering the more relaxed approach the BBFC have been taking recently. You can find the official statement from the BBFC here.

Anyway, bad news over and on with day one… America, Australia and the UK were all represented during the first day of FrightFest 2010 with three world premieres. Adam Green’s Hatchet II opened the festival and was followed by the Australian horror Primal and British vampire flick Dead Cert.
