Writer-director Steve Oram, cast Sean Reynard and Holli Dempsey and producer Andy Starke visit BFI Southbank to talk about Oram’s directorial debut, a horror comedy in which people talk like apes.
Debauchery, chaos and the jarringly mundane unfold in weird ways, and amid drab suburban contexts, in actor-comedian Steve Oram’s strange and unpredictable feature, released 10 years ago. Humans act like apes and physical, dialogue-free powerplays remap the Ryan family household when a visitor challenges the precarious hierarchy. Oram and his cast go ape in this wildly original, gleefully animalistic film – a true one-off for 21st century British cinema.
