Black Mandala is proud to present SHED, a gripping survival horror film from director Steven J. Mihaljevich. Set almost entirely through the perspective of a trapped young girl, SHED delivers a uniquely intimate and nerve-shredding horror experience. With remarkable restraint and precision, Mihaljevich crafts an intense, immersive and unique outstanding horror thriller that draws its power from vulnerability, isolation, and the slow, unbearable rise of terror.
At the heart of the film is a stunning performance by Mani Shanks, alongside Australian genre legend John Jarratt (WOLF CREEK), whose presence will be instantly recognized by horror fans around the world.
On Christmas Eve, 10-year-old Mia is accidentally locked inside a farm shed just as a violent stranger descends upon the property. Trapped, alone, and unable to fully understand the nightmare unfolding around her, she is forced to endure hunger, fear, and the horrifying realization that something terrible has happened to her family. Hidden only a few metres from the killer, Mia must rely on patience, instinct, and sheer will to survive.
SHED is a tense, claustrophobic, and emotionally charged horror film that proves sometimes the most terrifying place is the one you cannot escape.
The film is the winner of Best Horror Feature, Best Screenplay for
Steven J. Mihaljevich, and Best Actress for Mani Shanks
at the UK Film Awards and had its premiere at SCREAMFEST LA
