An elderly caravan-park resident tangles with a mysterious woman in this deliciously unpredictable horror debut from a South Australian filmmaking duo.
On a dark and gloomy night, a violent thunderstorm is about to send two people into a tailspin of intrigue and paranoia. Soaked, shaken and seeking shelter from the rain, an enigmatic young woman, known only as “the visitor”, arrives at the doorstep of Patrick, an eccentric old man living in a mobile home at the rear of an isolated caravan park. But what begins as an apparent safe haven for these two lonely souls gradually curdles into a nightmare of suspicion, as distrust escalates into danger, reality crumbles and an unforgettably twisted showdown awaits.
Shot on a micro-budget by emerging South Australian filmmakers Josiah Allen and Indianna Bell, this ingenious genre piece – the only Australian selection at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival – makes thrilling use of its minimalist, unnerving premise and showcases combustible lead performances from Brendan Rock (Snowtown; Jack Irish: Black Tide) and newcomer Jordan Cowan as it slowly ratchets up the tension. With a spooky atmosphere and building to a climax as bizarre as it is shocking, You’ll Never Find Me is a hypnotic horror fable you won’t be able to shake.
“A confident, claustrophobic feature debut … heralding the arrival of two extraordinary talents.” – SciFiNow
