Sightseers (15)
Synopsis
A brilliantly original British comedy-horror following an odd couple on a tourist hotspot murder spree! Sheltered Brummie homebody Tina (Alice Lowe) is eager to get away from the stifling influence of her controlling mother. So when nice new boyfriend Chris (Steve Oram) proposes a romantic caravanning holiday, she readily accepts. Chris is eager to share his love of such quintessentially English attractions as the Crich Tramway Museum, the Ribblehead Viaduct and the Keswick Pencil Museum. But it's not long before he's showing a very different side of his character. Annoyed by a litterbug, he runs the man over and leaves him for dead! This proves a strangely liberating experience and the couple are soon murdering their way across the scenic countryside. Ben Wheatley's follow-up to his acclaimed 'Kill List' is a sweetly touching black comedy of love, sex and bloodlust. Writers/stars Alice Lowe and Steve Oram spent years refining their characters on the stand-up circuit.
