Shocking film festival audiences and earning critical praise on its stateside release, director Robbie Banfitch’s The Outwaters is a terrifyingly original take on the found-footage format that takes audiences on a delirious, gruesome and wildly original journey into the unknown…
The Outwaters follows four friends who set out to make a music video whilst camping in the sun-drenched Mojave desert. Their trip starts off like any other, but the group soon realises something is not right. Mysterious sounds haunt them, and when a menacing force descends, their horrifying journey into soul-shattering darkness begins.
