A British horror movie, which cost just £12,000 to make, is to join a long line of successful low budget shockers as it looks set to emulate huge hits like Paranormal Activity and The Blair Witch Project.
The Cutting Room, which was shot at various locations in East Sussex using a cast of largely unknown actors, has received major retail backing and is currently selling out in Supermarkets up and down the country.
The film follows a group of media studies students and the plot involves a wave of cyberbullying and the disappearance of two girls, which leads the students into an abandoned army barracks, where they discover a shocking secret.
First-time director Warren Dudley says: “We felt that horror is the last genre in modern film where a tiny budget is not too much of a hindrance.
“If you have a good story, likeable characters and a really scary location audiences are happy to engage.”
