‘Every town has secrets’
Braxton Butcher is a 2015 British serial killer thriller written and directed by Leo McGuigan (The Morrigan), making his feature debut. The What’s Next Films production stars Shaun Blaney, Jenna Byrne and Vicky Allen.
Every town has a devil. For the small community of Braxton, that devil is Tommy Miller. A bullied and tormented teen who finally snapped, killing his friends and family at the annual Braxton town hall party, Miller escaped into the woods, never to be seen or heard from again.
Ten years later, a group of fresh-faced teens find themselves targeted by a masked man in a hooded cloak. It’s up to Detective Ryan Fenton and his fish-out-of-water partner to protect the town from Miller’s clutches; there’s just one issue – Ryan himself is a survivor of the original massacre. Is Miller opening up a new chapter, or has he returned to attend to some unfinished business?
Braxton Butcher will to be released on DVD in the UK by Left Films in 2018.
