DAGR: A Found-Footage Comedy Horror Directed by Matthew Butler-Hart
In "DAGR", Ellie Duckles and Riz Moritz play ambitious YouTubers who, in their pursuit of internet fame, find themselves in a haunted 18th-century mansion. Their plan to covertly capture footage from a commercial shoot quickly spirals into a nightmare as they awaken the spirit of a vengeful druid. The film features performances by Matt Barber (known from "Downton Abbey"), Tori Butler-Hart, and introduces Emma King, Graham Butler, Hattie Chapman, and Luca Thompson, creating a rich tapestry of characters set against the backdrop of a gripping horror narrative.
