THE DARKLING FOX (2023)

8 min   |   English   |  Dir. Henry Fish 

After getting trapped in an isolated woodland, a hunter is tormented by his former prey.

 

Shot in January of 2023, The Darkling Fox is an environmental nightmare from S&H Films and the newly founded H2 Films, made in affiliation with Solent Films and Southampton City Council.

​

With a tremendous performance from David Ogundare and gorgeous cinematography from Emily Stanzl, the film is now ready for audiences, undertaking its festival run at the end of 2023. 

​

The film had its premiere at Cinemagic Film Festival in Belfast on the 30th October 2023 and has had a subsequent selections from Northampton Film Festival and Romford Horror Festival. The film also won its category of Best Local Film at Buntingford Shorts 2024.

 

We're also delighted the film was selected for the BFI Future Film Festival 2024, screening at BFI Southbank in February. Director Henry Fish also received a nomination for the largest award of the festival, Best New Talent (supported by Warner Bros. Discover). It was an honour to bring this environmental horror film to the heart of the U.K. film industry and show the film to a wide audience (including the festival's official sponsor, Netflix). 

​

After a fantastic festival run the film will release online May 1st 2024, available on all platforms for everyone to enjoy.
