Dead on the Vine (2022)

About: Dead on the Vine is a thriller feature that, along with producer Laura Rees and DOP Kieran Clark, was produced during lockdown. Events converged to present us with a one off, now or never, opportunity to make this film. So we took it. We managed to gather a brilliant cast and crew who were all reeling from the effects of Covid on our industry and we came together to make a great film.
It had its world premiere at Kevin Smith's inaugural Smodcastle Film Festival in Dec '22 where it won Best Picture, Best Actor (Tom Sawyer) and Best Ensemble.
We had our UK Premiere at the BIFA qualifying Unrestricted View Film Festival in London where we took home Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor (Tom Sawyer) and Best Actress (Shereener Browne). Victoria Johnston and David Whitney were both nominated in the acting categories also.
