Australia’s first all-female horror anthology Dark Whispers – Volume 1, created by filmmaker Megan Riakos (Crushed), debuts internationally. The stories are directed by eleven talented filmmakers: Angie Black, Briony Kidd, Isabel Peppard, Janine Hewitt, Jub Clerc, Kaitlin Tinker, Katrina Irawati Graham, Lucy Gouldthorpe, Madeleine Purdy, Marion Pilowsky and Megan Riakos, who directed the wrap-around segment.
Dark Whispers- Volume 1 will show Sunday 8 February as part of Final Girls Berlin Film Festival in Germany. This screening will be followed the film’s North American premiere at Cinequest in San Jose, California, screening on 5, 6, 7 and 9 March.
It stars Andrea Demetriades (Babyteeth), Asher Keddie (Offspring) and Anthony LaPaglia (Riveria).
Andrea Demetriades plays Clara, who is obsessed with her late mother’s cherished “Book of Dark Whispers”. Each weird tale that she encounters within its pages explores a new facet of the twisted human psyche, or not-so-human; from the horror of grief to a share-house living disaster, from existential dread to right-swiping vampires.
