by DB Morgan in Clacton On Sea, England, United Kingdom

      www.morrismenmovie.com         "Drugs are bad... M'kay!"


An utterly original British Indie feature. Starring: 


Ross O'Hennessy (Game of Thrones, Mission Impossible: Fallout, Avengement.) Jamie Chambers (Fury / Beowulf / The Brothers Grimsby / King Arthur) Leona Clarke (An Inspector Calls / A Touch of Vengeance / Faith) Jon Campling (Final Fantasy, The Witcher, Festival) Ray Whelan (Soft Hands, Solo: A Star Wars story, Red Army Hooligans) Katie Jarvis (Fish Tank/Eastenders)  Karl Howman (The Long Good Friday)

DIRECTED by Multi award winning Director GREGG MASUAK


"When a seaside town is gripped in a vice of drug fuelled corruption, sometimes the only solution is to book a dance with the Morris Men."

England is on its knees. A drug epidemic to match anywhere in the modern world. Cocaine, Heroin, Opium, Spice, Balloons, Beans, Benzos, Skunk, Ketamine, Mamba, Pinkies, Angel Dust, Billy, Blotters, Amsterdam gold... Bounce, Eric, Fentanyl, Ice, Kix, Lucy, Mandy, Meow Meow... and now Golden Goose.  

Something has to change!


The story of the Morris Men

In the pursuit of his childhood sweetheart, loner Tommy Feerman enrols in her Morris dancing club. He soon realises that all is not as it seems and covers for a secret society of shadowy assassins as ancient as the British realm. Before he knows it, Tommy is sucked into a perilous under-realm, where danger lurks behind a crimson wax seal and the only dancing is with the devil himself.
