One winter’s morning in the quiet town of Rhuthun, North Wales, three men are called upon once again to carry out a terrible assignment on the neighbouring mountain pass - the Bwlch Pen Barras…

“It’s entirely in Welsh, so immediately add another layer of cosmic horror…the Welsh are batting 100% in my book.” - Stephen Clements - Lovecraft Festival review, Mobile, Alabama

The Wyrm of Bwlch Pen Barras is a brand new Welsh folk horror short film set and shot in Rhuthun, N Wales, by debut writer-director - and Rhuthun native - Craig Williams. It stars Welsh-language superstar Bryn Fôn and Seán Carlsen.

The film features a stunning score by Dafydd Ieuan & Cian Ciarán of the Super Furry Animals. It is edited by Mátyás Fekete, HSE (The Duke of Burgundy, In Fabric) and was shot on Kodak Super 16mm film by the legendary New York-based cinematographer Sean Price Williams (Good Time, Listen Up Philip, The Sweet East). The art work (logo, posters, titles) is by Richard Wells (BBC productions: Dracula, Sherlock, The Mezzotint).

It looked gorgeous. I was ready to dislike this, but I was taken, bound, gagged and beaten up the side of that hill and sacrificed. Thumbs up. - PhillUpNorth

“I couldn't love this more - it feels like it could have come out of my own brain.”

- Caitlyn Downs, scaredsheepless.com

“Good, tense doom-filled slice of folk horror. Folk horror should feel like an unearthed forbidden record of something and 16mm really enhances that feel.”

- Horror 365
