SERIES 4
Torchwood’s
Gareth David-Lloyd to make directorial debut in fourth series of hit Welsh web
show, Twisted Showcase
Twisted Showcase is
back for Series 4. The Guardian top 25 Web TV show, the only British
independent to be listed alongside names such as Joss Whedon, David Lynch, John
Woo and Seth Macfarlane, returns darker and more twisted than ever, with its
fourth and by far biggest series.
The trailer lands
Tuesday 26th September and can be viewed here - https://youtu.be/f7ITI7GuZpk
The series begins on
October 3rd with the disturbing and blackly comic Be My Head which
features Gareth David Lloyd (Torchwood) and Mark Fleischmann (Wolfblood, Being
Human). Be My Head is the directorial debut of Gareth David Lloyd who said that
"Twisted Showcase is an important platform for young writers and
directors. It's a pleasure and a duty for me to support independent web drama
like Twisted Showcase. It has done for me what it has done to other writers and
directors at the beginning of their careers by helping me take that first vital
step."
Be My Head concerns
Lucifer Jones, a man consumed by grief after a devastating tragedy. Lucifer is
shown a way out of his predicament by Godfrey Cavendish, a man with a very
interesting machine, and motivation for using it. It's a terrifying, intense
and blackly comic examination of the grieving process, and it's not to be
missed when it arrives online on Tuesday 3rd October at www.twistedshowcase.com
The series continues
each week with a whole new stand alone twisted tale. Muscle Memory is from the
pen of BAFTA winning writer and creator of Wolfblood, Debbie Moon. Muscle
Memory is a body horror that takes place during a massage where secrets linked
to certain muscles of the body are brought out and confronted and dealt with in
horrific ways. It stars Rachel Teate (Wolfblood) and Jo Ellis.
Norman Lovett (Red
Dwarf) returns as a call centre worker in the future for an initiative called
The No Hotline. Sarah Louise Madison (Doctor Who) returns alongside Stephen
Aintree (Little Britain) for the heartbreaking love story between an aged man
who believes he's a teenager and his girlfriend who saw him only a day ago at the
age he is supposed to be.
There are also
episodes which utilise the beautiful vistas of North Wales - the dark and
disturbing Valley Below was filmed upon the Horseshoe Pass in Llangollen.
Rachel Teate also
stars in our closing episode when she goes to see a Fortune Teller, but what
her future unearths is far worse than any reading that's ever been done before.
