The dark and demented British horror comedy Freehold, released on DVD 9th October 2017 from Precision Pictures, sees an amoral estate agent getting his comeuppance, when a man whose life he destroyed begins a deliciously malicious campaign of revenge.
Orlan's life is turned upside down when Hussein, a slick and sleazy estate agent, scuppers his plan to buy a home. While Hussein carries on as normal, oblivious to the trail of damage he has left behind him, Orlan decides to take revenge. However, his plan to get even with Hussein, and make his life as uncomfortable as possible, soon escalates out of control.
Freehold is both inventive and highly entertaining, a dark urban morality tale set against the cutthroat world of the housing market, that top genre critic Kim Newman says is "delightfully nasty". The directorial debut of Dominic Bridges, it taps into what is surely a fantasy of anyone who has ever bought a house or rented a flat - getting your own back on an estate agent! Here, Bridges and scriptwriter Rae Bunton (Outpost series) take that idea and push it to its delirious conclusion.
The film also features a fantastic cast of up-and-coming British screen talent - including Black Mirror star Kola Bokinni, who appeared in this year's Brad Pitt starrer War Machine, and Mandeep Dhillon, last seen as the hapless receptionist in 2016 hit David Brent: Life on the Road.
