Ahead of a festival run later this year, we’ve got a first-look poster and trailer for Habit, the new Manchester-set British horror from director Simeon Halligan (White Settlers), which is based on the novel of the same name from Stephen McGeagh and stars s Elliot James Langridge (Northern Soul, Let’s Be Evil), Jessica Barden (Penny Dreadful, The Lobster), William Ash (The Tunnel, Hush), Roxanne Pallett (Wrong Turn 6, Emmerdale) and Joanne Mitchel (Before Dawn, Attack of the Adult Babies). Check them out here, along with a batch of stills…
Michael, jobless and down on his luck is irresistibly drawn into the city’s seedy underworld and is groomed by a secretive subculture who have a dark secret; a bloody addiction that they intend Michael to share.
Habit will be screening at the likes of Grimmfest, Cambridge Film Festival, Celluloid Screams, Dulin Horrorthon, NYC Film Festival and more, with a release planned for early 2018.
