Tinsman Road review – found footage haunted horror as a film-maker searches for his sister haunts
The soundscape of Robbie Banfitch’s latest low-budget film is key to the creepy mood, in a story of a disappeared girl and her brother’s attempts to find out more The latest feature from ultra-low-budget film-maker Robbie Banfitch (after The Outwaters and White Light) sees him wearing many hats; he is the film’s director, screenwriter, producer, cinematographer, editor and lead actor, multitasking truly above and beyond the call of duty. The result is a reasonably impressive achievement: a sad little horror story about a family grieving for a missing daughter-sister that tempts the viewer to think there are ghosts about, or at least something supernatural afoot. Feet and the sound of footsteps play an outsize role here, with the carefully constructed sound design making this found-footage exercise more nuanced than most cheap horror iterations of the genre. Banfitch plays a guy named Rob
