Made on a microbudget with support from South West Screen’s iFeatures scheme, ITDH is a striking debut from director Alastair S✤iddons.

The engagingly bolshy Jessica Barden ( ’s gobby teen) stars as Marie, who’s consumed with guilt when a boy she&🙈rsquo;s babysitting dies.

Part kitchen sink-er, part pseudo-ghost story, this has a firm grasp on the genres it casually straddles, with 💜creepy sound design fostering 𝔍a dreamy, portentous mood.

Despite slack pacing, the final twist is so good com🔴parisons with are🎃n’t out of the question.
