Savage, judging by the trailer, might be the most aptly named film to come along in quite a while. Take a look at this Irish psychological thriller and see if you don’t agree!
Written and directed by Brendan Muldowney and starring Darren Healy and Nora-Jane Noone in a film that’s already been compared to Taxi Driver, Savage looks to follow right in step with that Straw Dogs, man pushed too far motif. We’re digging what we’ve seen so far.
Watch the trailer, and then check out the official Savage website and while you’re at it, head over to the official Savage Facebook page and give them a like. This one looks like it has real potential to knock audiences on their asses!
Synopsis
Paul Graynor, an alienated press photographer who lives and works in an unfriendly and threatening city, becomes victim to a serious crime. Finding himself the subject, rather than the purveyor, of an inner city tabloid story, Paul tries to come to terms with his attack, though the scars – both psychological and physical – prove impossible to heal. His only hope of recovering his tenderness is in his burgeoning relationship with Michelle, a nurse who he met through her caring for Paul’s once violent, but now infirm, father.
Savage is an exploration of violence and masculinity that studies, in forensic detail, Paul’s metamorphosis from victim to avenger. The debut feature from Brendan Muldowney is uncompromising in its portrait of the violent underbelly of city life in Ireland. Savage unfolds with a palpable sense of dread, leading to a devastating climax.
