“We’ve made something that you may like (we hope). We’re a couple of no good enigma hunters and our favourite show when we were kids was the peerless Unsolved Mysteries – recently we thought, what better way to pay tribute to its formative influence on us than to do a cover of its theme and make a video for it.”
Doubt.

Rory explains:
I’m not really sure why I made this one…

First dates are hard – why not remove the stress by getting your friends to help you say all the right things? On second thoughts, Shifts show us why that might not be the best idea…
Carnage.

Ireland, 1849.
A father and son working the land are forced to confront an evil more rotten than a bad potato.

Given the week that’s in it, I’m hoping that you might have space to share a short Irish horror film that was made independently (and for very little!) in rural Co. Cavan a couple of years ago. Now that The Gloaming has completed the festival circuit, we’ve just made it available to watch online today.
‘The Gloaming’ was shot in summer 2013 and stars Republic of Telly host (and proud Cavan man!) Kevin McGahern. It was written and directed by Sean Smith and I co-produced it. It has screened in festivals all over the world – from South Africa to Lisbon to Sitges to Manchester – and has picked up a few awards along the way. Enjoy.
Also starring Tommy Sharkey, Kim McCafferty with Eoin Heaney as ‘the fiend’.

Episode 1.
Robert writes:
A new Dublin based webseries – whose first episode (above) is released today “Danny & Dante” is a five part comedy/drama about two twenty-something guys who chance upon the idea for an App for the discerning non-hipster. Each episode is 5/6 mins in length with episodes released every Wednesday for the next four weeks. It has mature dialogue and might be considered NSFW.
