Sawney: Flesh of Man

The legend of Sawney Bean and his murderous family is savagely brought to life in this chilling modern take on the Scottish cannibal hunting and abducting victims. This is juxtaposed with the controversial police investigation to solve the resultant spate of missing persons. In the bleak rugged mountains where caves hold the grisly remains of travellers who have met gruesome ends at the hands of the Black Cab driver Sawney Bean, whose victims are raped, dismembered and slaughtered for the insatiable appetites of his grungy inbred clan of cannibals, a crime journalist documents the incompetency of law enforcement in solving the case while an inspector despite being hampered by the sensational news headlines is determined to bring the killers to justice. Gruesome and compelling, Sawney: Flesh of Man is not a film for the feint of heart.© TVP Film & Multimedia 2012
