Stars: Natasha Henstridge, Georgia Hirst, Olivier Richters, Eve Connolly, Manpreet Bambra, Maria Volk, Dave Johns, Danny Kirrane, Kamal Angelo Bolden, Orson Chaplin | Written by Luke Foster | Directed by Bernhard Pucher
Directed by Bernhard Pucher and written by Luke Foster (Betsy and Leonard), Ravers follows an illegal night-time rave, in a factory where contaminated energy drinks caused a worker to go fatally berserk, that turns into a nightmare. As a forgotten batch of the drink is found and consumed by drunken ravers, a truly terrifying physical transformation takes over and those unaffected try to escape in panic. Becky, a germophobic journalist, reluctantly there to cover the event on the behest of her boss (a cameoing Natasha Henstridge), is trapped among the increasingly hostile crowd of dancers, and to save herself and her friends, she has to overcome her deepest phobias to help them get out alive.
