SYNOPSIS

Based on the short story from the Nailbiters collection, written and adapted by award-winning and bestselling author Paul Kane, The Torturer is an independent horror film that delivers a chilling psychological experience. The story follows Andy Brooks, a man who wakes up in a cell and finds himself interrogated for information he insists he doesn’t have. As the torture escalates—performed by the sadistic Torturer himself—it becomes clear that there is more at play than just a battle of wills.

​

An award-winning horror film, The Torturer has captivated audiences with its intense performances and psychological horror. Adapted from a bestselling horror short story, this horror short film has also been staged as a play and will soon be released as a comic book.
