The Herd

"What would you eat to survive?"

A brand new controversial horror film by producer and director Johan Neethling for Thames Gate films. Penned by Thomas Willshire, fresh from the Royal Court Young Writers program, the film project promises to deliver a thrilling ride from beginning to end.

In the aftermath of a global cataclysmic event, a group of people are slowly traveling down the Norfolk coast in search of further survivors. Despite the grim circumstances they function as a team and live on what little the ravaged land gives up.

The group encounter an unconscious man who has clearly been struggling on his own for some time. As he fights back to health, he presses the group to travel further and further, unknowingly into a heart of darkness where their deepest fears will be cut open and revealed.
