Stalker
Stars: Anna Brecon, Jane March, Linda Hayden, Colin Salmon, Billy Murray, Jennifer Matter | Written and Directed by Martin Kemp
“Hey,” I thought as Stalker’s opening scene began; a sequence in which a young woman runs through some woods in the magic hour. “This looks just like that short film I made in media studies at sixth form!” A rather unfortunate indictment to be sure, but hey, I learnt a lot from media studies. Ha ha ha!
Stalker is a remake/reimagining/whatever of the 1976 video nasty Exposé, in which struggling author Paula Martin (Brecon) relocates to a spooky old house in the middle of nowhere with her Pa Linda (March) in order to write her new book, whereupon bad shit starts to go down as Paula battles her personal demons. It’s directed by Martin Kemp. The same Martin Kemp who was in Spandau Ballet and Eastenders. That guy.

Producer Jonathan Sothcott dropped us a line today with an update on Martin Kemp's Stalker along with a few exclusive stills featuring Jane March and ex-Hammer horror actress Linda Hayden. There's also a bit of news for those of you in the UK planning to attend Film4 Frightfest 2011.
Kemp's feature film directorial debut is set to stalk cinemas across the UK from October 10th, ahead of its DVD release on October 17th. Sothcott tells us, "We are now gearing up for Stalker's UK theatrical release in October, and the response has been fantastic. It's really encouraging seeing people getting enthusiastic about an old fashioned psycho-thriller that doesn't have a huge cast. Martin has written [with Phill Barron] and directed a really compelling movie that wrings every bit of tension out of the creepy story."
He continues, "We are working with our friends at FrightFest to give attendees a special treat... there's...
