Skeletons (2010)
5/10
A surreal, quirky, but slow paced British comedy
12 May 2020
In this surreal, quirky but slow paced British comedy, Bennett and Davis (Ed Gaughan and Andrew Buckley) are psychic exorcists working for the mysterious Colonel (Jason Isaacs). They travel the country( usually by foot) and use supernatural means to get inside people, help unburden them of the skeletons in their closet and find their darkest secrets. When they are sent on a difficult mission to try and find a woman's missing husband, presumed dead, they can find no trace of his memory in the house. Much of this film directed by Nick Whitfield was shot on location around Matlock Bath, and Gaughan's character lives on a house boat in a field beside Ratcliffe-on-Soar power station. It earned the director a nomination for Outstanding Debut at the 64th British Academy Film Awards, and won the "Best new British feature film" award at the 2010 Edinburgh International Film Festival.
