Andy Abraham attended the star-studded red carpet premiere of the new thriller Deviation this evening at the Odeon Shaftesbury Avenue in London.

Starring Danny Dyer and Anna Walton, Deviation is a taut, tense thriller that explores the deep, subconscious fear of being abducted by a stranger.

Stories of abduction – particularly of young women – hit the news frequently. Rooted in reality, the film opts for a naturalistic, cinema verité style to tell the story of Amber’s horrifying journey in order to put the audience at the centre of the story.

Beyond the fear and horror of the situation, Deviation is also about the two main characters. The director avoids the usual gender clichés associated with horror films. Instead, Amber displays quiet, subtle heroism in the face of extreme adversity. As for Frankie Norton, he might be a creepy and pathetic psychopath, but he is also surprisingly charming, funny and complex.
