Uncle David 2

David Hoyle stars in this dark and disturbing sequel to Uncle David. It returns us to a bleak caravan park somewhere on the Isle of Sheppey and finds Uncle David has introduced a new addition to his community, whose warped imagination and love of horror might have led to murder. Some of the park's inhabitants take a keen interest in the androgynous Michael/Michelle. A pair of emotionally disturbed siblings are especially curious and needy around this new arrival. Drawn into Uncle David's web, their presence has consequences for all concerned. Certainly not for the faint of heart, this is bold and adventurous filmmaking and as queer as it is unsettling.

Directed by Gary Reich, Uncle David 2 leans on a strong ensemble — David Hoyle, Matty McCabe, Lucy McCormick — 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 comedy titles of 2018.
