Full Trailer: Twisted Romance, Nina Forever

Acclaimed out of SXSW, the beautiful and very twisted horror romance Nina Forever has a full trailer to writhe around with. 

From directors Ben Blaine & Chris Blaine, Nina Forever is an utterly macabre, and very darkly funny affair about a blooming romance and the very dead girlfriend that comes between. In the film, Rob (Cian Barry) is still grieving the death of his girlfriend Nina when Holly (Abigail Hardingham, terrific) comes into his life. Every time he and Holly get intimate however, Nina (an incredible Fiona O’Shaugnessy) rises through the sheets, a mangled form with wit to spare and vitriol to spew. 

I caught Nina Forever at the festival down in Austin. What’s incredible about it (and a lot is), is that the filmmakers don’t push for a more overtly relationship comedy tone. Nina Forever is grim in its humor and often stunning in its look. That’s not to mention scary. Nina has the unsettling motion of a figure out of Japanese horror. It’s a truly upsetting physicality to match the sadness of her state, discarded by life. 

Epic Pictures releases a full trailer for the film online, but no word yet on U.S. distribution. Hopefully soon.
