Eklo takes place in a futuristic version of Earth in which a deadly viral epidemic forced humanity to flee the planet in 2030. Sixty years later, British space agency astronaut Zach (Bacon) is on a reconnaissance missions and crash-lands in the Himalayan region of Nepal with his partner. They explore their surroundings and uncover a hidden city of caves nestled among the mountains, where they encounter a mysterious figure (Khadka), who is the mythical guardian of the Himalayan region.

Stars: Richard Cotton, Roisin Browne, David Wayman, Ocean M Harris, Miki Davis, Zach Galligan, Jack Fairbank, Jamie Bacon, Derek Nelson, Sarah Diamond, Ryan Oliva, Bethan Walker | Written by Andy Edwards, Airell Anthony Hayles, Jake West | Directed by Andy Edwards, Airell Anthony Hayles, Ludovica Musumeci, Jake West
[Note: With the film set for its digital debut tomorrow, here’s a reposting of our review of Midnight Peepshow from its festival run back in 2022]
British horror cinema has a long-standing tradition of producing some of the best anthologies of all time, in particular in the era of Hammer, Tigon et al. So when a new anthology comes along it can be hard to separate it from history and tradition. But with Midnight Peepshow, filmmakers Andy Edwards, Airell Anthony Hayles, Ludovica Musumeci and Jake West actually tap into British cinematic history, setting their film in the formerly sleazy streets of London’s Soho – a place where, once upon a time, sex and cinema were often intertwined.

This film seems unable to decide whether it is a hallucinatory exploration of queer culture or a naturalistic rite-of-passage drama
With her low-budget feature debut, British director Lois Stevenson gives us a tonally unsteady film: it’s unsure whether to be a sturdy naturalistic coming-out drama about a twentysomething man forging his Lgbtq identity, or a weirded-out Kenneth Anger-style dive into queer subculture.
Screenwriters Jamie Bacon and Charles Streeter double up duties to act the lead roles. In creaky office scenes, Bacon plays mousy Daniel, an entry level City worker uncomfortable with the advances of his boss, who’s eyeing him up as his wingman in hard drinking and everyday sexism. Daniel is also avoiding calls from his dad, who leaves apologetic, bridge-building messages. What emerges in flashbacks is a terrible childhood memory: his father exploding with rage at Daniel dressing up in girl’s clothes. For years, Daniel...
