Can you believe it's been 10 whole episodes and I haven't shut up yet? Dogged is the debut feature-length film from filmmaker Richard Rowntree. This ambitious effort culminates in a two hour long submersion into the insane world of folk horror. Channeling classic works like The Wicker Man, but adopting a modern setting, Dogged follows Sam's somewhat involuntary investigation into the death of a young girl on the mysterious tidal island where he grew up. Along the way, he discovers the seedy underbelly of this small community. It's fantastic modern example of classic folk horror with amazing, memorable characters all made on a budget of around $20,000.
Combining rural, British charm with vast landscapes, dangerous cliffs, animal head masks, and torch-lit mobs, it's sure to get you in the Halloween spirit. It's widely available on Amazon Prime, Tubi TV, digital rental, and DVD.
