Minisode: Possum - interview with Matthew Holness

November 20, 2018


We have another minisode! Jaq spoke with writer and director of new British horror Possum, Matthew Holness. Matthew was in Sheffield recently as part of a Q&A tour, and we grabbed him for a quick interview. Matthew is known to small screen viewers as the star and creator of Garth Marenghi’s Dark place, which only ran for one series on Channel 4 but has a huge cult following and helped launch the careers of talent such as Alice Lowe, Richard Ayoade and Matt Berry.


Possum is a new British horror film starring Mission Impossible actor Sean Harris and stage and screen veteran Alun Armstrong. After returning to his childhood home in Norfolk, a disgraced children's puppeteer is forced to confront the secrets that have tortured his entire life.


The Cinema For All podcast is proud to be supported by the BFI, awarding funds from the National Lottery.
