Cronenbergian body-horror runs rampant in debut feature director Ian Clark’s taut, anxiety-inducing British indie shocker.

Award winning short film director Ian Clark (Jenny And The Worm) and stars Alex Reid (Misfits; The Descent 1 and 2), Aneurin Barnard (Elfie Hopkins; Citadel), Steve Evets (Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides; Five Days; Looking For Eric), Oliver Coleman (Casualty; The Other Boleyn Girl) and Skye Lourie (The Pillars Of The Earth).

Seven volunteers – students Carmen, Arif and Adam, office temp Joni, journalist Katie, estate agent Jerome and unemployed Derek – arrive at the remote Limebrook Medical Clinic to take part in a clinical trial run by ProSyntrex Pharmaceuticals. In exchange for a fee of £2,000 these human “guinea pigs” have agreed to spend two weeks in isolation testing an experimental new drug known only as Pro9. After settling into the facility, each participant is given a first injection and, following a group dinner, sent to bed. But shortly after dark, the group is woken by the harrowing screams of one of their number. Soon, each volunteer begins to succumb to the terrifying and previously unknown effects of Pro9 during a never-ending night fraught with horror, madness, violence and death.

It’s a tense, claustrophobic and overwhelmingly effective chiller that belies its low-budget origins and marks Ian Clark as a talent to watch.

“A fantastic premise… smart and well-acted… a uniquely dynamic approach, building an almost palpable atmosphere from the escalating dread and fear which appears on screen.” – Cine-Vue.com.

“Featuring a premise that’s as intriguing as it is downright scary, some effective moments of genuine terror and characters you actually care about, ‘The Facility’ delivers.” - ThoughtsOnFilm.co.uk

“An assured début from award-winning shorts director Ian Clark… engaging and enjoyable.”
