The ‘Video Nasty’ controversy of ’80s Britain is recreated in loving detail in this crafty lo-fi horror.- Time Out ★★★★

 

1985. When film censor Enid discovers an eerie horror that speaks directly to her sister’s mysterious disappearance, she resolves to unravel the puzzle behind the film and its enigmatic director -a quest that will blur the lines between fiction and reality in terrifying ways. Steeped in glorious 1980s aesthetics, Welsh director and screenwriter Prano Bailey-Bond’s CENSOR is a bloody love letter to the VHS ‘video nasty’ horror classics of the past.
