Ep 189 The Group

We present a spoiler free look at “The Group”, the debut feature of director William Higo.
A group meeting for (mostly) recovering addicts is suddenly hijacked by an unknown man, who conducts his own brutal group therapy session, down the barrel of a gun.
Secrets are exposed, truths confronted and loyalties are torn and formed as the situation reaches boiling point.
A taut thriller set in one location, this film is so much more assuredly cinematic than those restrictions may suggest, and it succeeds in being a tense and intriguing ride. The small cast work wonders with a smart and unflinching script, holding the viewer in their seat for the film’s duration.
A big thank you to Will Higo for reaching out to us (via longtime friend of the show Tony Wash) and allowing us to view this excellent thriller.
Having wowed at festivals, “The Group” is available in the US, and coming soon in the UK, and we urge you to seek it out!
