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…

What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
