The film Taxi Driver has been used in comparison for this Irish flick which looks beautifully shot and revolves around a victim of violence who turns to vengeance. Sorry folks, no trailer yet, but we've got a 3 stills and a review coming up shortly.

Ireland is unfortunately having serious issues with their film funding body right now as it's been recommended to scrap the whole thing. I hope this doesn't happen.

Paul Graynor, an alienated press photographer who lives and works in an unfriendly and threatening city, becomes victim to a serious crime. Finding himself the subject, rather than the purveyor of an inner city tabloid story, Paul tries to come to terms with his attack, though the scars – both psychological and physical prove impossible to heal. His only hope of recovering his tenderness is in his burgeoning relationship with Michelle, a nurse who he met through her caring for Paul’s once violent, but now infirm father. Savage is an exploration of violence and masculinity, and studies, in forensic detail, Paul’s metamorphosis, from victim to avenger.

Gallery after the break.

If you like the concept you should check out Straw Dogs, an old 70s movie starring Dustin Hoffman.
