That is what it is about

A little grass, they said, would do her good for the party. Vicki just had to drive around the corner with them, they said, and there would be some. By the time the girl realises that something is wrong with the nice couple, it is already too late. John and Evelyn have devised one of their bloody special treatments for the 17-year-old... It is only when Vicki comes to understand the very unique dynamic between the two of them that she senses what is probably her only chance to escape the psychopaths.

What you should know

Every year there is that one film that breaks the boundaries of the genre. The one that ties us to the edge of the cinema seat as if hypnotised and makes us unable to make another move. HOUNDS OF LOVE is that film. With stoic calm, it tells a true story of two serial killers and sets a milestone for the genre with playful ease. Comparisons? No, that doesn't do this tough and enigmatic thriller justice! Ben Young's directorial debut must be seen!

Direction

Until HOUNDS OF LOVE, Ben Young was known primarily as a TV director and was able to attract attention with his short films in his home country of Australia. After the screening at the Venice Film Festival, however, Ben's phone blew up and private screenings for Hollywood greats were hastily organised. Overnight, the underdog became one of the most sought-after names in the business. His $20 million alien invasion film EXTINCTION will be released in 2018.
