Written and directed by Ivan Kavanagh, and starring Rupert Evans, the film tells the story of David Williams and his wife, Alice, who move into a beautiful period house by the canal with their small child, Billy.
As David begins to suspect that his wife is cheating on him, he also starts to have nightmarish visions of an evil presence he believes inhabits his home. Eventually, brutal 20th-century murders are revealed and present-day horrors consume the protagonists.
The Canal – one of the latest horror films to come under the distribution partnership between Shock Till You Drop and The Orchard – has been terrifying audiences the last few months. Over the summer, we screened to Comic-Con attendees and, most recently, those who hit Beyond Fest in Hollywood.
