Genre: Experimental folk horror
Duration: 1h 31m
Director: Markus Jenkin
Pour: Mary Woodvine, Edward Rowe, Flo Crowe

if you thought Skinamark was the only experimental horror film of 2022, think again: Mark Jenkin’s experimental folk horror set on an uninhabited island off the coast of Cornwall is here to give Kyle Edward Ball a run for his money. Shot entirely on 16mm film, Eny’s men (Cornish for “Stone Island”) follows a wildlife volunteer (Mary Woodvine) in 1973 who is plagued with strange and disturbing visions after repeated exposure to a rare psychotropic flower. The trailer for the film certainly looks terrifying, with scenes of the volunteer exploring the quiet and menacing corners of the island punctuated by blink-and-you’ll-miss shots of lewd men and giggling flower girls à la 1973 The Wicker Man.
