Broken

Capitalising on the success of films like SAW and HOSTEL, BROKEN gives the survive-or-die scenario an al fresco spin. The premise is somewhat familiar; a woman is abducted and taken to a remote part of the woods, where she is subjected to unthinkable torments by her cruel and sadistic captor. Her ordeal is made all the worse by not knowing her daughter's whereabouts... or if indeed she's still alive. Why any of this is happening is unclear, and it's this apparent lack of motive that heightens the tension to an almost unbearable degree. Directors Simon Boyes and Adam Mason prove that you don't need a huge budget to unnerve your audience; just a creepy setting and an inventive, albeit twisted, imagination.

Notes from Sundance 2008
- 25 Jan 2008
Inconvenient Truth "This town has no business having a film festival," my friend Jessica said to me the other day. A Sundance virgin, she was struggling to comprehend why what seems to be New York's entire film industry and a good part of LA's too should decide to decamp to Park City, Utah every January. It's cold, inconvenient and by general consensus the facilities are inadequate. A town of less than 8,000 suddenly swells to accommodate more than 50,000 on the opening weekend of the festival Read more
