Forged in 1998 by Emma Malin & David Parker, No Redeeming Features is a genre-bending, award-snagging film & theatre house that doesn’t play by the rules. Our playground? The shadows. Our muse? Fear.
This isn’t art. This is rot in motion.
We don’t chase clout. We chase discomfort.
Dread.
That
stomach-turning moment when the lights go out and something knows your name.
No Redeeming Features is an award-winning horror collective masquerading as a film
and theatre
company.
Born in the dark. Still there.
1999. The Foundry Horror Fest. A trilogy of short films dropped like a black
plague.
2001. The
Modernista conquered the 48 Hour Film Challenge, carved from the corpses of sleep-deprived
competitors.
Same year? Fringe Report’s Film of the Year. Of course it was.
What The Dickens? – Two years of street theatre soaked in the bones of
Charles Dickens, mutilated
with a gothic twist no one saw coming.
With Page Mason School of Dance & Drama, we turned cobblestone
into a killing floor.
We toured the UK like a disease. Our live Rocky Horror shadow-cast show
infected town after
trembling town.
At Notting Hill Carnival, we hijacked Talbot Road for 17 years—building a stage where
joy came to die and spectacle came to scream.
We launched Claremont—because even monsters love the scent of new
skin.
Then joined Mark Rein
Hagen to script and co-produce the teaser for I Am Zombie. It’s not a game. It’s a warning.
This isn’t a company. This is a possession.
We don’t do safe. We don’t do
catharsis. We don’t do
redeeming.
We are the thing in the corner of your eye, the voice under the floorboards, the whisper
that says: make it worse.
NO REDEEMING FEATURES
You didn’t survive.
You were
chosen.
Beautiful nightmares.
Violent truths.
