When The Screaming Starts trailer

Comedy horror film premiering at FrightFest this weekend

Here's the trailer for new comedy horror film When The Screaming Starts.

Described as 'if Louis Theroux met the Manson Family', the film will debut alongside at the Leicester Square Cineworld in Central London  at the weekend as part of Frightfest.

When Norman Graysmith is invited into the home of an aspiring serial killer, Aidan Mendle, he believes he has found the subject for the documentary that will transform his failing career. Initially the production goes well with Aidan freely opening up about his desire to kill, but when his early attempt at committing murder falls apart, things begin to unravel.

The film, billed as 'a darkly comic tale of how far we will go in order to achieve our ambitions', stars Yasen Atour, Ed Hartland, Octavia Gilmore and Jared Rogers and is the feature debut of filmmaker Conor Boru.
