Freeze Frame
I’m not sure how I missied this British/Irish co-production because it looks fantastic.
Sean Veil is an ultra paranoid murder suspect, virtually a prisoner trapped in his bunker of a home, who takes to video taping himself round the clock. All Sean wants from life is to have an alibi just in case he’s ever accused of another crime. Problems arise however when the police comes calling again and the very tape that can prove his innocence has mysteriously disappeared. Dipped in stone cold colors, Freeze Frame shivers in its world of blues, blacks and steel. With impeccable style and Swiss clock timing, debut director John Simpson leads us into an elaborate labyrinth of fear and revenge.
The film stars Lee Evans in the title role and - from the trailer, at least - it looks like he’s turned in a performance that is nothing short of incredible.
