In Fear is an Irish 2013 psychological horror film directed and written by Jeremy Lovering, packaged on Blu-ray.
Adventurous couple Tom (Iain De Caestecker, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D) and Lucy (Alice Englert, Beautiful Creatures) set out for fun and romance, heading to a music festival in rural Ireland – but nothing prepares them for the sheer malevolence that lurks along the road up ahead.
Despite having a hotel room booked, the couple faces a lonely night lost in the twisted country lane ways. Surrounded by dark woods, Lucy catches a glimpse of a masked man in the haunting unknown, setting forth an intense journey into the depths of desperation and despair.
In the thrilling tradition of The Strangers and You’re Next, In Fear is a visceral experience of terror, a creepy road trip on the edge of the outer limits.
In Fear Movie Reviews
“Writer-director Jeremy Lovering, in his feature debut, keeps a skilful handle on technique — his film is a calling card that could give you paper cuts.” The Telegraph
“A taut, chilling little horror-thriller making maximum use of minimal resources to tap into our primal fears of the unknown.” Total Film
“Economical in the extreme — but without appearing cash-poor — this tightly wound thriller proves that minimal resources can sometimes produce more than satisfying results.” The New York Times
“A wicked little horror film in which nearly all of the violence takes place in your head, "In Fear” expertly builds terror out of not much more than two people driving around in a car." New York Post
