A film swimming completely under-the-radar is Sea Fever, which is set to have its World Premiere at the forthcoming Toronto International Film Festival this September.
From director Neasa Hardiman, the film is being described by some as “The Thing meets Annihilation,” which is more than enough to grab my attention.
In the film, a bizarre creature hitches a ride on a departing trawler.
“The crew of a West of Ireland trawler, marooned at sea, struggle for their lives against a growing parasite in their water supply.”
TIFF adds that the film “leverages the mysteries of the sea to amplify the potential horrors of the unknown.”
Connie Nielsen, Hermione Corfield, and Dougray Scott star. Here are the first ever images.
