Trailer for the Dark Comedy WHEN THE SCREAMING STARTS Follows an Aspiring Serial Killer
Cinedigm has released an amusing trailer for an upcoming British horror mockumentary dark comedy titled When the Screaming Starts. The film follows a man named Aidan Mendle who has a dream of becoming an infamous serial killer. The synopsis reads:
When Norman Graysmith is invited into the home of an aspiring serial killer, Aidan Mendle, he believes he has found the subject for the documentary that will transform his failing career. Initially the production goes well with Aidan freely opening up about his desire to kill, but when his early attempt at committing murder falls apart, things begin to unravel. idan desperately tries to maintain his position as the next Charles Manson by starting a murder cult, interviewing prospective members for what he affectionately calls his “family”. The potential candidates provide a rich tapestry of misfits, from the lost and confused to the (most likely) psychopathic. Events begin to spiral out of control and Norman watches his dreams crumbling around him.
The movie was directed by Conor Boru, and it looks like it could be an entertaining flick. However, it could be considered awkward due to the fact it jokes around and makes light of murdering people. You’ll probably have to have a dark sense of humor to enjoy this thing.
The ensemble cast features Ed Hartland, Jared Rogers, Kaitlin Reynell, Octavia Gilmore, Kavé Niku, Ronja Haugholt, Vår Haugholt and Yasen Atour.
Screambox will release When the Screaming Starts streaming on the Screambox service starting September 20th, 2022.
