Enys Men

Jenkin’s style is so unusual, so unadorned, it feels almost like a manuscript culture of cinema. There is real artistry in it.

In ambition, achievement and Jenkin’s future as an image-maker of esoteric esteem, this is a big step up from Bait.

Mesmerising and mystifying, in equal measure. Enys Men confirms Mark Jenkin as one of the most exciting, original cinematic voices in the UK right now.

...it’s the kind of thing the victims in a horror film might watch, just after pulling it from the cellar of a derelict harbour cottage, and shortly before succumbing to some blood-curdling maritime curse.

Mark Jenkin fortjener skulderklap for sit modige og visuelt interessante forsøg.

...ett utmärkt stycke diskbänksrealism, lika ilsken som nostalgisk, och effektivt förhöjd genom sovjetisk montageteknik och klonkig post-synkroniserad ljudläggning.

Vad är verklighet och mardröm, minnen eller kusliga visioner? Jenkin leker med folk horror som "Wicker man", slänger snyggt in lite "Don’t look now" och "The Shining".
