Dir: Lee Akehurst
Media Killer Films

Synopsis

Ned Harris is a fifty-something everyman. Doting father. Loyal colleague. Compassionate landlord. Serial killer. Beneath the seemingly normal surface resides a web of warped sensibilities, spontaneous brutality and cold-blooded murder. A psychiatrist would probably blame Ned's peculiar childhood, but what's Paul's excuse? Paul James is Ned's long-standing tenant - callous and calculating, with voyeuristic tendencies and a bizarre sense of humour. So when Kate and Jason, a young couple with problems of their own, move into Ned's building, they prove to be the catalyst for a shocking turn of events. It's not long before Ned's rapidly unravelling life spirals completely out of control, as we race towards a deadly conclusion. The story culminates in a final showdown between Ned and Paul, where they are forced to confront their demons and reveal their darkest secret. Dark Rage is a twisted journey into a deeply disturbed mind. Not for the faint-hearted!

Danny Maitland is a complicated man. A gifted psychologist with an extraordinary past. But his friends and family are worried. Since the tragic suicide of a young girl placed in his care and a subsequent mental breakdown, Danny has gradually and quietly withdrawn from everyday life... and worse still, he's hitting the bottle - hard. Is he drinking to forget? Hiding from the truth? Or simply seeking salvation at the bottom of a whisky glass? Either way, Danny's on a slippery slope, rushing headlong into the darkness of his tortured soul. A date with destiny seems inevitable. Returning to work at the Mountview Psychiatric Hospital, treating those only marginally more fragile than himself - surely it's a simple matter of time before redemption or damnation comes a-calling...
