The Velvet Onion, 29th November 2016Preview: Prevenge
Featuring a cast primarily made up of TVO regulars, and with Alice Lowe writing and directing as well as leading that incredible cast, we were naturally very keen to see it. Our editor, Paul Holmes, shares his thoughts below...
Paul Holmes, The Velvet Onion, 18th October 2016Prevenge - review
Prevenge was screened in the 'laughs' comedy strand of the London Film Festival, but the humour in Alice Lowe's directorial debut most definitely of the jet-black tone. Its tone is bleak and unnerving, with only the occasional dry comic moment offering relief from the brutal actions of its serial-killing anti-heroine, Ruth.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 17th October 2016Prevenge review
Alice Lowe's self-starring directorial debut finds a pregnant woman out for blood.
Emma Simmonds, The List, 14th October 2016A caravan, a bear, and housewife horror: Alice Lowe
Right now she's busy with a fast-turnaround film project, her directorial debut feature, provisionally titled Prevenge. The part-improvised film is best described as a 'post-feminist revenge movie' and features Alice as a pregnant woman on a killing spree (Alice herself is currently seven and a half months pregnant, so thankfully there will be no need for anatomically suspect padding). The mystery at the centre of the film is who she's killing, and why.
