Mark Hartley’s remake of PATRICK is about to make its debut at the Melbourne Film Festival in just a few days, and a new trailer has arrived for the supernatural shocker. In truth, it’s not all that different from the first one we saw, but there is enough new footage to warrant giving it a peek. Plus, you can’t go wrong with as much Sharni Vinson as possible; the lovely Aussie is also about to be seen in YOU’RE NEXT (she’s fantastic in it).
Charles Dance, Rachel Griffiths and Damon Gameau also star in PATRICK, which goes like this:
fter killing his mother and her lover some years before, Patrick is the comatose patient in room 15 of a remote, private psychiatric clinic run by the secretive Dr Roget who treats him as guinea pig in his bizarre studies of life and death. When Kathy, a nurse who has recently separated from her boyfriend, begins working at the clinic, she is instructed to care for him. She is disturbed by Roget’s treatment of him and somehow feels that Patrick is trying to make a connection with her. When Kathy realized that the lifeless murderer can communicate, she is shocked but compelled to prove her theory. Patrick has psychokinetic powers, which he uses to talk to Kathy by transferring his thoughts to her computer. As Patrick’s communication becomes stronger, strange and terrifying events begin to occur. Patrick has feelings for Kathy and his affection is about to manifest itself as a deadly, bloody obsession.
If you live in Melbourne, PATRICK premieres on July 27th. Click HERE for details.
