Dagr – What You Need To Know

In the middle of last year I wrote about getting the opportunity to contribute, in a small way, with Matthew and Tori Butler-Hart’s latest project…Dagr.  Well, just this week I had an email from Matthew which had some great news…there will be a UK limited cinema release next month followed by a digital release in North America, Australia and New Zealand later in the spring. I’ve also had a sneak peek at a screener version but can’t review it just yet for legal reasons. I will say that it is a real thrill seeing your name in the credits!

What is Dagr?

Dagr is a comedy horror in the found footage sub-genre. Louise and Thea are wannabe YouTube superstars. They disguise themselves as caterers to a film crew making an advert in order to plant hidden cameras to get footage they can use for their own project. Unfortunately, they find something rather unsettling…

Water drinkers unite

Run pee is the best app for people who find themselves needing to pee a lot but also not wanting to miss any action. The app gives you the best times to use the bathroom during a movie while also telling you when to leave and which lines to listen for! It not only gives you the time you should go pee, but it also explains to you what is happening during the break. I helped I use this app every time I go to the movies now. My god father recommended this app to 5 years ago and it’s been in my phone ever since! Highly recommended.
