Official Trailer for UK Psycho-Thriller ‘Awaiting’

Published

on

The UK thriller Awaiting has received heaps of praise overseas and now the official trailer has landed on our shores. So I guess you can say the “wait” is over? Or not. Never mind, man, just watch the trailer. It looks pretty damn wicked.

Awaiting was written and directed by Mark Murphy and, along with Tony Curran and Diana Vickers, stars Rupert Hill, Sophie Lovell Anderson, Peter Woodward, and Charley McDougall.

For more info visit the official Awaiting Facebook page.

Green Screen Productions, in co-production with Solar Productions, presents Mark Murphy’s second feature, Awaiting, a psychological thriller starring Tony Curran (Underworld: Evolution, Gladiator) and “X Factor” finalist Diana Vickers (Little Voice, Give Out Girls).

Awaiting is an engaging journey of introspection into the depths of human nature and the capabilities of twisted minds. The plot follows Morris (Curran), a recluse with psychotic tendencies, whose life changes when his innocent daughter (Vickers) rescues one of his victims and befriends him. Jake (Hill), an ordinary businessman, soon realizes that he is stranded, and his presence in the house gradually reveals unexpected and dark mysteries from the past.

Murphy previously said of the film, “We have a strong script, a blisteringly talented cast, and a crew at the top of their game. I have no doubt we’re going to deliver a film which will appeal to cinema goers globally.”
