For the first twenty minutes of writer/director Trevor Juras’ first feature, The Interior, viewers can be forgiven for thinking they’re watching a Joe Swanberg mumblecore comedy, which isn’t a bad thing in and of itself – if you’re into that kind of thing.
James (Patrick McFadden) is a disillusioned young man, unhappy in his white collar job, who spends his days dreaming about telling off his boss and his evenings recording agonizingly bad rap songs. When he learns that he is ill with a mysterious ailment, he decides to quit his job and leave Toronto – and his girlfriend – behind in order to do some soul-searching on an extended camping trip deep in the British Columbia forest. When pressed as to why by said girlfriend, his re [Continued ...]...

The Interior
Director: Trevor Juras
Runtime: 80 minutes
It’s always refreshing to see a filmmaker try something new with the horror genre even if the full package isn’t wholly unique. Enter The Interior, a low-key first feature from Canadian filmmaker Trevor Juras that is split into two very distinct acts.
Set in Toronto, the first act plays like a standard mumblecore comedy about a man in arrested development. We meet James (played by newcomer Patrick McFadden), a frustrated young man who should be happy with his life but remains chronically depressed. James smokes a few joints, records a rap track, loses his job and receives a distressing medical diagnosis when visiting his doctor. Wanting to get away from all the stress, James flees the suffocating big city and heads west on a getaway through the beautiful forests of British Columbia. It’s at this point that the title card...
