About Dark Lies the Island
A long standing family feud rocks a small town that comes to a head when the Patriarch of the ruling family decides to upend the status quo. Married to a much younger woman who calls him Daddy, she loves his power but is still in love with her first love, Doggy who is Daddy’s estranged son! Doggy is a criminal running various shady businesses with his dimwit brother, Martin when a mysterious newcomer Richie arrives in town to shake things up. Now watch the fireworks start in this Fargo-esque delight!
Directed by Ian Fitzgibbon, Dark Lies the Island leans on a strong ensemble — Charlie Murphy, Pat Shortt, Peter Coonan — 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 thriller titles of 2019.
