    • Synopsis
    • The Dark Mile is a psychological thriller built around a strong central relationship of two very different yet sympathetic characters. A tense psychological thriller, The Dark Mile blends The Wicker Man, Deliverance and Duel, then comes up with a film rich in atmosphere and tension.
      London couple Louise and Clare (Rebecca Calder and Deirdre Mullins) book a sailing trip in the Highlands to recover from a personal tragedy. The location may be idyllic but soon they are tormented by a black industrial barge that follows them, and by the dysfunctional folk on board. Hints of the occult and paganism point to dark times ahead as tension mounts.
