Summaries

Storyline

In 1985, Enid Baines works for the British Board of Film Classification during the height of the Video Nasty controversy. Enid's co-workers call her "Little Miss Perfect" due to her strictness in recommending that violent content be cut or banned. While Enid is having dinner with her parents, they discuss the disappearance of Enid's sister Nina when the two were little. Enid's parents have since declared Nina legally dead, but Enid is convinced that her sister is still missing. — Wiki Margaret Thatcher 's England. As an unstoppable wave of hardcore movies that depict butchering, sadism, and murder--the infamous video nasties--invades Britain, mousy Enid, a diligent, scissor-happy film censor working at the British Board of Film Classification, is convinced that she is helping society. However, when an extreme horror film inspires a family man to slaughter his wife and children, Enid's repressed childhood trauma emerges from the past, triggering a destructive obsession over her sister Nina's disappearance. Now, Enid is powerless to resist. But just how far down the rabbit hole is she prepared to go to unearth the truth? — Nick Riganas
