‘Grips, twists, jostles and pokes… queasy hints of Blair Witch, Paranormal Activity, Kill List and Peep Show… punchy, funny, scary… a fantastically unnerving location’
★★★★
The Guardian
‘A smart, funny and genuinely spooky movie’
The Times
‘The script is witty, the cast are simply terrific… a spiky, intelligent little throat-grabber’

Say your prayers as writer-director Elliot Goldner’s chiller The Borderlands is set to strike fear into your very soul, as this acclaimed British horror classic comes to Limited Edition Blu-ray from Second Sight Films. The brand-new set comes complete with a host of fascinating special features, it is also available in a Standard Edition Blu-ray.
When frequent strange happenings are reported at a thirteenth century church in rural Devon, a small team of Vatican investigators are sent in to try and demystify the unusual goings on… But what they discover is more disturbing than they could ever imagine.
Acclaim for The Borderlands (aka Final Prayer in the US) has been wide reaching, with some drawing comparisons to not only horror classics, such as The Omen, The Exorcist and The Wicker Man (The Independent) as well as Blair Witch and Kill List, but the surprising too: sitcom Peep Show (The Guardian). With Goldner’s sharp script and some brilliant special effects, the film really does bring its own brilliant spin to the found footage horror genre.
Lauded for its humour and creepy location by many, with Evening Standard noting ‘The banter between Robin Hill (Kill List, Down Terrace) and Gordon Kennedy (The Halycon, Robin Hood) cynical Scot is funny and unsettling. And the stark church is a winner’, the film makes for a unique and terrifying watch.
The Limited Edition set is presented in a stunning rigid slipcase with new artwork by Christopher Shy and comes complete with a brand new audio commentary from Robin Hill, Gordon Kennedy, producer Jennifer Handorf and special effects designer Dan Martin, as well as new interviews, archive behind-the-scenes featurette and 70-page book with brand-news essays.
