It has been a long awhile since we’ve heard anything about the Scottish monster film OUTCAST (you can read Andre’s review in the DVD pub here), well today brings in some exciting news. The film will debut on Video On Demand on August 30th, how cool is that? In case you don’t remember much about the film, I have the synopsis for you below.
It tells the tale of Petronella (a Scottish/Romany girl) and Fergal (her mysterious Irish traveller boyfriend). As their doomed relationship plays out, a Beast stalks the estate, killing locals, working its way towards our protagonists.
Meanwhile Cathal and Liam, two mysterious travellers from Ireland use ritual and magic on a blood hunt. Mary, Fergal’s mother performs ritual and magic of her own. As Cathal comes face to face with Mary in a vicious finale we know one thing: the Beast must die.
Sounds like a damn good time to me! The film was directed by Colm McCarthy, who also wrote the screenplay with Tom K. McCarthy. It stars James Nesbitt, Kate Dickie, Niall Bruton, Hanna Stanbridge (below), Ciaran McNenamin.
