Unhinged: Retribution is a 2023 British horror film about four young women who, after a traumatic confrontation with a stalker, are forced to take refuge with an eccentric older man and his bed-bound wife; a couple who soon exhibit troubling behaviour.
The movie is being touted as a very belated sequel to the ‘video nasty‘ Unhinged (1982), although it seems more like just a remake of Don Gronquist’s movie (itself a reworking of Psycho) which the same filmmakers had already remade in 2017 with the same title.
Directed by Matthew B.C. (director of Monster Portal; Medusa; co-writer of Blood in the Water; Exorcism Vengeance) from a screenplay written by Harry Boxley (Mary Had a Little Lamb; Cinderella’s Curse; Snake Hotel; Easter Killing 2; Dragon Fury 2; The Area 51 Incident; Van Helsing) with ‘additional writing by’ Scott Jeffrey. The synth-heavy score was composed by Paul Bateman.
Produced by Scott Chambers [as Scott Jeffrey (The Mutation; Bad Nun: Deadly Vows; Don’t Speak; Cupid; ClownDoll)], Rebecca Matthews and Louisa Warren.
The Proportion Productions–ChampDog Films movie stars Ella Starbuck (Dinosaur Prison; Medusa’s Venom; The Killing Tree), Hannah Pauley (Monsternado), Chloe Karr, Leona Clarke, Nik Goldman, Jase Rivers, Toby Wynn-Davies (The Ghosts of Borley Rectory; Witches of Amityville Academy; Nefarious; Dogged), Lora Hristova and Lauren Staerck.
