Protein + Q&A

Dir. Tony Burke | 2024 | 92 mins plus Q&A with Craig Russell | English 

A gym-obsessed serial killer murders and eats a local drug dealer for their protein, inadvertently sparking a brutal and bloodthirsty tit-for-tat turf war between rival drug gangs. 

Based on his 2014 short film of the same name, PROTEIN is the feature film debut of award-winning commercials/music video director Tony Burke and offers a compelling blend of blackly-comic small-town crime thriller, nuanced character drama and grisly cannibal horror. The film premiered to rave reviews and an incredibly enthusiastic audience reaction at London’s FrightFest 2024. 

Starring Craig Russell, Kezia Burrows, Charles Dale, Richard Mylan, Kai Owen, Steven Meo

Written by Tony Burke and Mike Oughton 

Directed by Tony Burke 

This film will be followed by a Q&A with Craig Russell.

Craig Russell is an actor, writer and producer who has spent the last thirty years working all over the world in film and television. His many appearances include Queen Cleopatra (Netflix), Riches (Amazon Prime), The Last Kingdom (Netflix) and Dream Team (Sky One). 

He has produced for film and television and is a published children’s author.

Craig lives in Falmouth with his wife Kate and their two young sons, Teddy and Henry.
