The final two months of every year are a great time to catch up on horror movies that were released throughout the year, as there typically aren’t all that many new releases coming along at this point in time.

The witchtrials were never really about broomsticks and pointy hats, magical powers or turning people into frogs, and Lynne Davison’s grisly feature debut understands this far more than most witch-centric horrors. Set in small town Northern Ireland, it takes on a fair amount of the tried-and-tested scenery, from the deep, dark woods, to the local angry mob, but Davison and screenwriter Matt Harvey’s characters are that little bit more nuanced, making for a wicked wiccan nightmare with some much needed fire at its centre.
Case in point, Mandrake’s lead, easily-irritated parole office Cathy (Deidre Mullins), a wobbly recent-divorcee who dives head first into her no-nonsense work rehabilitating ex-convicts, often missing weekends with her estranged son (Belfast’s Jude Hill) in the process. Cathy finds she’s well and truly met her match though, when she rubs up against her latest case, local legend Mary Laidlaw (Derbhle Crotty...

Each FrightFest at the Glasgow Film Festival there are always a few standouts – Mandrake from Lynne Davison is one of those movies.
When you think mandrake you may instantly think of those cute but lethal plants from Harry Potter – be prepared for something a little more sinister that dives deep into the dark folklore that spans all the way back to The Bible.
This horror marks the feature debut for Davison, with a screenplay from Matt Harvey, takes place in Northern Ireland. We follow probation officer, Cathy (Deirdre Mullins), who takes on the case of recently released murderer Mary Laidlaw aka “Bloody Mary” (Derbhle Crotty) and events take a turn for the worst.
Ahead of the UK premiere of Mandrake we catch up with Lynne Davison to talk tough shooting conditions, influence of Blair Witch & Midsommar and more.
Mandrake screens at Glasgow Film Festival on March 12th – tickets available here...

The darkly atmospheric tale of probation officer Cathy Madden (Dierdre Mullins), who is tasked with overseeing the rehabilitation of murderer ‘Bloody’ Mary Laidlaw (Derbhle Crotty) in a small Irish village but quickly finds herself out of her depth, Mandrake is part of the Frightfest selection at this year’s Glasgow Film Festival. It’s the début feature for director Lynne Davison, who has previously focused on shorts, so when she and I got the chance to chat, I began by asking her why she chose this time and this project to transition to a longer format.
“I really feel that short film is a wonderful genre unto itself,” she says, “and I think standalone stories are brilliant. But I had longer stories that I wanted to tell. It's a very hard stage of filmmaking, because it's...

The problem with inspirational biopics is keeping the person at the center of the story relatable and realistic rather than deifying them. Christina Noble's story is eminently — almost heartbreakingly — grounded, and the aptly titled Noble is that much more powerful for it. Growing up poor in 1950s Dublin, Christina (Gloria Cramer Curtis) is sent to an orphanage at age ten following the death of her consumptive mother (Derbhle Crotty) and abandonment by her worthless drunk of a father (Game of Thrones' Liam Cunningham). And then things get (more) unpleasant: Cruel nuns, sexual assault, and an abusive husband follow, driving Christina, improbably, to Vietnam, where she would eventually establish a foundation to help orphaned children. Noble...
