Director/producer/writer Pearry Teo (who just happens to be one of my favourite directors working today) has been gearing up for his next project, the much more personal fairytale horror Bedlam Stories – which has been in gestation for almost a year under the guidance of Pearry under his TeoWard Productions banner.
Inspired by the fairytales we all know but with a much darker twist, Bedlam Stories is:
“Set in the 1920s, [as] intrepid reporter Nelly Bly fakes insanity to gain admission into the infamous Bedlam Asylum. While researching her expose, Nellie meets a young patient, Dorothy, who has delusions of a fantasy land she calls “Oz.” Digging deeper into the dark history of the asylum, Nellie uncovers evidence of human experimentation on another inmate, a young girl named Alice, who’s “Wonderland” mirrored Dorothy’s imaginary world. Nellie is determined not to let Dorothy share Alice’s fate as a human guinea pig.
