Dark Summer

Dark Summer (2015) is a horror-thriller from director Paul Solet — watch it online on iFILM. Seventeen-year-old Daniel is locked into a house-arrest summer: internet cut by court order, no leaving, nowhere to go. Then a classmate breaks through on a video call and takes her own life in front of him. Her last words: she is coming back for him.

Keir Gilchrist carries the film in what is essentially a one-location, three-person show. Peter Stormare turns up as the probation officer who sees only the rules and none of what is actually happening inside those walls. Low budget, modest scope — but the closed-space dread holds.
