The feature debut of Irish writer/director Damian McCarthy,
Caveat stars Jonathan French as a drifter who takes a job looking after a young
woman (Leila Sykes) on a secluded island. The catch is that he must
wear a harness that keeps him confined to the house, which leads to him
finding himself trapped in an increasingly disturbing scenario.
Caveat is on Shudder UK/ROI from June 3rd.
Check out the trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
Lone drifter Isaac (Jonathan French) accepts a job to look after his landlord's niece, Olga (Leila Sykes), for a few days in an isolated house on a remote island. It seems like easy money, but there’s a catch: he must wear a leather harness and chain that restricts his movements to certain rooms.
Once Olga's uncle, Barrett (Ben Caplan) leaves the two of them alone, a game of cat and mouse ensues as Olga displays increasingly erratic behaviour as a trapped Isaac makes a series of horrific discoveries in the house.
