Bonus Features:Director's CommentaryCast & Crew InterviewsMaking of DocumentaryShort FilmTrailersA portion of a film review written in August 2015 by Dr Lenera, Official HCF Critic at Horror Cult Films website: ...[Peter] Hearn has described Scrawl as ‘Big meets A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 3 – Dream Warriors‘, which now I’ve thought about it is fairly apt, though I have to say it didn’t really occur to me when I watched the film. In any case, Scrawl is a highly original work that for me stands out in the crowded horror marketplace today. While Hearn clearly loves his horror movies, he dares to be different with his film, and his quite dense script requires some concentration as to what is happening, compared with the increasingly bland formulaic genre norm at the moment, which seems to be just rehashing the same stuff over and over again and is largely just jump scare after jump scare. Hearn has taken a slightly more sophisticated approach with the tale he has concocted, and he has obviously had to write parts for quite a large cast, something which made the film a little hard for me to follow in the first few scenes, but then some of that may be due to horror films not tending to have a large cast of principal characters so I’m just not used to it! In fact Hearn is quite ambitious with his film, and, while the story sounds like something you would need lots of money, especially for special effects, to properly realise, he proves that determination and enthusiasm is sometimes all that you need. So this is a horror film, but with a wonderfully black sense of humour that surfaces every now and again, something that is apparent right from the opening scene of the wounded girl scout, introduced via some very effective close-ups, lying down in the ground, and a great aerial shot shows her lying down, maybe dying, before a car suddenly runs over her leaving no trace except some blood and a cap! You’re not meant to take Scrawl seriously, but the film refuses the temptation to laugh at itself [except for maybe the final scene] and takes its story, and its large cast of people, seriously. ...The cast mostly do a good job considering some of them have never acted before. I was very impressed by Liam Hughes as Simon – he has an unassuming, natural screen presence. Annabelle Le Gresley convincingly evokes Annie’s pain in what was probably one of the hardest parts. Of course the main reason some of you will see Scrawl will be because Daisy Ridley, soon to be seen in Star Wars, plays a role. She’s not as prominent as you may expect but her character Hannah is quite an unnerving presence nonetheless. The filming of Scrawl was hit by the death of Derek Jones as the Caretaker, requiring much altering of the script, but he’s very menacing in his two brief moments. I’m not going to pretend that Scrawl is the next horror masterpiece, but it’s still a very impressive piece of work considering the circumstances of its making, and is certainly very different to much else that is out there at the moment...
