About By the Throat
A wealthy couple, Amy and Alex Cummings have 'lost" their daughter in a tragic car accident several years ago, and Amy is in need of supervision whilst Alex is away on business. The trauma of the crash, the loss of their daughter and Amy's inability to become pregnant again because of her horrendous injuries, have all pushed them to a dangerous place. Lizzy arrives at their beautiful, rural family home to find all is not what it seems. Dark forces are summoned and Lizzy soon finds herself part of a devious plan. Death and murder ensue.
Directed by David Luke Rees, By the Throat leans on a strong ensemble — Jeany Spark, Rupert Young, Patricia Allison — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2026.
