Berlin to Showcase the Chills of The Holding February 12th

The Holding, from director Susan Jacobson ("One Hundredth of a Second") and writer James Dormer ("Spooks"), is getting set to premiere in Berlin next month. This film bills itself as being "in the vein of Cape Fear," and this thriller focuses on a remote farm "in the north of England" (Boden). Here, a family is torn apart by a man with a secreted obsession.

The Holding will show in Berlin February 14th, as part of the European Film Market and later in the United Kingdom (June 1st). Details are still coming in, but this thriller stars sexy Kierston Wareing (Fish Tank), the terrifying Vincent Regan (300), Skye Lourie (Guinea Pigs) and Georgia Groome (Angus). Peer into the chilling details below.
