It stars Liam Hughes, Joe Daly, Daisy Ridley, Mark Forester Evans, Le Gresley, Nathalie Pownall, Catherine Ruddick, Ellie Selwood and Derek Jones. It tells the story of two best friends, Simon and Joe, who must rewrite the happenings from the comic book, Scrawl, after realising that the events occurred from the comic are beginning to happen. It is also Ridley's film debut, being shot and released just before The Force Awakens. The film received positive reviews. In 2016, an extended cut of the film played at several indie horror festivals.[2][3] Hearn stated that the film was to be released sometime in 2017, but although it managed to have its distributor, it is been expected to be released in 2019, but no specific details since then. Plot summaryBest friends Simon (Liam Hughes) and Joe (Joe Daly) have written a horror comic book featuring characters from their daily lives. But when a murder on the beach occurs, and a girl based on the book, Hannah (Daisy Ridley), suddenly appears, they began to realise that the events from the comic book are starting to happen for real. With the help of Annie (Annabelle Le Gresley), Frank (Mark Forester Evans) and Rosie (Ellie Selwood), they must prevent a massacre in the woods that occurs in the book, by trying to revise what they have written, while battling Death. Cast
ProductionScrawl's stylistic production harks back to the 70s and 80s horrors Phantasm and Dream Warriors, as well as fantasy films such as Big.[4] Hearn had been teaching film at Andover College, and conceived the project as a hands-on training exercise for his students, influenced by Brian De Palma's Home Movies. Much like that film, Hearn's students were given the responsibility of raising money (via crowdfunding), as well as shooting and editing the film, all under Hearn's supervision. The cast consisted of professional actors, mostly British, such as Star Wars and soon-to-be upcoming Hollywood actress Daisy Ridley, as well as award-winning theatre and film actress Elizabeth Boag,[5] Mark Forester Evans and Nathalie Pownall from the horror film Credo. Both Boag and Pownall had worked before with Hearn on his short film Motto, as well as a previous feature film. Hearn stated that the film would likely attract a wider audience because of Ridley's appearance. Many of the students involved have subsequently gone into the industry or onto film school.[6] ReleaseThe film was produced by Half Day Wednesday and Red Scout Films, and played in film festivals and select cinemas between October 2015 and an unspecified month in 2016. A DVD version was due to be released independently in the first quarter of 2017, but neither the cast nor the official website confirmed this. After a fan asked about the film's release, Hearn stated that it would happen in September or October 2017, after it managed to have a distributor[7], but no news afterwards. A DVD version was released to only select people around the production of Hearn's new film, Dead Air. On the distributor's website, it has been speculated that the film will be released sometime in 2019.[8][9] ControversyThere has been argument over whether Scrawl or The Force Awakens was Ridley's film debut, with Ridley's fans claiming that entertainment news outlets have been mistaken in saying that the Star Wars film was her first. According to them, Scrawl was definitely her film debut, but it was ignored by the major media because it has not been widely shown. Ridley's fans have noted Hearn's decision to screen it only at select film festivals and not give it a proper release. ReceptionThe film received positive feedback from independent movie reviewers, but audiences were divided. Dr. Lenera of Horror Cult Films rated the film 8/10 stars, saying it is "a very impressive piece of work considering the circumstances of its making, and is certainly very different to much else that is out there at the moment."[10] Hearn was awarded the Phil Tucker Spirit Award by the Zed Fest Film Festival, in Burbank, California.[11] Awards
