Bait (2019) director Mark Jenkin’s next is the folk horror film Enys Men, and NEON has announced that they’ll be bringing the film to select theaters on March 31, 2023.
The film is set in 1973 on an uninhabited island off the British coast where a wildlife volunteer descends into a terrifying metaphysical and ecosophical journey that challenges her grip on reality and pushes her into a living nightmare. Check out the trailer below.
In Enys Men, “A wildlife volunteer on an uninhabited island off the British coast descends into a terrifying madness that challenges her grip on reality and pushes her into a living nightmare. Evoking the feeling of discovering a reel of never-before-seen celluloid unspooling in a haunted movie palace, this provocative and masterful vision of horror asserts Mark Jenkin as one of the U.K.’s most exciting and singular filmmakers.”
Jenkin wrote and directed, with the original story idea by Jenkin and Adrian Bailey. Mary Woodvine and Edward Rowe star.
NEON teases, “Enys Men was shot on 16mm color negative using a 1970s clockwork Bolex camera and post sync sound. This was to achieve the feeling of discovering a reel of never-before-seen celluloid unspooling in a desolate, haunted movie palace.”
