TORMENT

A relaxing family retreat turns into the holiday from hell when a cult-like family of masked killers set their sights on a young family. Newlyweds Sarah and Cory Morgan take Cory’s 7-year old son Liam to their isolated farmhouse to bond as a new family. Despite the idyllic location, they begin to realize that the trip was a mistake. The house unearths fresh memories of Liam’s recently deceased mother and the boy lashes out at Sarah for taking her place. In the course of this domestic turmoil, it becomes apparent that someone has been living in the house while they were away. After police inspector Hawkins reassures them that there is nothing to worry about, Cory and Sarah decide to stay the night. Big mistake. Their unwanted house guests have been hiding in the house all along and take Liam in the middle of the night. Cory and Sarah find themselves fighting for their lives as they desperately try to get their son back from the sadistic family of murderers that have claimed him as their own. What if Goldilocks and the Three Bears wasn’t a cute fairytale but a full blown home invasion movie full of gore and terror!? That’s what Jordan Baker has in store for us with Torment. He already came to the BIFFF in 2010 with the horror thriller Duress, but with Torment he has surpassed himself. Katharine Isabelle ( American Mary ) steals the show as a heroic Sarah Morgan. With Robin Dunne ( Three Days in Havana ) as Cory Morgan and Stephen McHattie ( 300, Watchmen ) as inspector Hawkins.
