DDI Is Screaming At EFM ‘22


DDI has acquired worldwide sales rights to the dark comedy feature film WHEN THE SCREAMING STARTS and will launch sales during virtual EFM ‘22.

 

Inspired by the modern-day obsession with serial killers and true-crime documentaries, WHEN THE SCREAMING STARTS features Jared Rogers (Killer Weekend) as Norman Graysmith, a struggling documentary filmmaker who follows an aspiring serial killer on his blood-soaked quest for infamy. Ed Hartland (The Crown) plays the killer. Yasen Atour (Netflix’s series The Witcher) and Octavia Gilmore (For Sale) round out the cast.

 

Following a festival run that has included Frightfest and Grimmfest along with strong critical reviews, WHEN THE SCREAMING STARTS marks the feature directorial debut of Conor Boru. Boru co-wrote the script with Hartland. Producers include Dom Lenoir (Winter Ridge), along with Boru, Hartland and Rogers.

 

‘Conor and Ed have written incredibly smart characters and surrounded themselves with really great talent that completely embrace the dark subject matter and make it laugh out loud funny,’ said Padilla from DDI.

 

‘We're beyond excited to be working alongside DDI to bring WHEN THE SCREAMING STARTS to the EFM. DDI has a brilliant roster of films and we're delighted to be in their fantastic line-up,” said Boru.
