Award-winning director announces new film The Collector
Award-winning director and writer Stuart Wheeldon has officially announced the release of his latest short film, The Collector. Starring Nigel Barber in the lead role, Wheeldon promises that this upcoming horror flick is hoping "to leave audiences on the edge of their seats”.
Known for his spine-chilling horror productions, Wheeldon also aims to follow the success of his previous horror-themed productions In Limbo, Starman and The Telephone.
He is the founding director of the Wirksworth Film Festival, a weekend long festival based in the market town of Wirksworth, Derbyshire. And now he returns with another story that promises frights and excitement throughout The Collector’s 20-minute runtime.
And plot-wise, The Collector will be taking audiences on a terrifying journey through the eyes of a man who has stumbled upon a dark secret kept hidden for years.
The film's star, Nigel Barber, is a seasoned actor who has been working internationally on stage, in film, television and radio for many years and worked with some of the industry's most gifted contributors. These include Sam Mendes, Christopher McQuarrie, Robert Mullan and Tom Cruise.
“Through his impeccable acting prowess, Barber brings The Collector's main character to life, embodying the fear and desperation that comes with being trapped in a terrifying situation”, says Wheeldon.
Talking about the upcoming production, Wheeldon adds, "I'm thrilled to be working with Nigel Barber on this project. He is a true professional and is perfect for the role of our protagonist." He goes on to explain, "The Collector is a unique production that I believe will appeal to horror fans and thrill-seekers alike."
The Collector's release is planned for later this year with an official trailer expected to drop soon, and will be available to watch on multiple online platforms, including YouTube and Vimeo.
