A knock on his mobile home door one dark and stormy night leads to haunting reflections, shocking revelations, and eerie interactions for a lonesome man and his mysterious visitor in You'll Never Find Me. Directed by Josiah Allen and Indianna Bell (who also wrote the screenplay), You'll Never Find Me is now streaming on Shudder, and Daily Dead recently caught up with Josiah and Indianna to discuss their ambitious feature film directorial debut, including keeping things fresh while filming in a singular location, building a sense of dread through the movie's powerful sound design, and working with actors Brendan Rock and Jordan Cowan to create a psychologically compelling (and potentially deadly) game of cat-and-mouse between their characters.
You can watch our full video interview with Josiah and Indianna below, and we also have the official trailer and synopsis with additional details on You'll Never Find Me.

What are the chances that a lost young woman would find her way to particular trailer on a particular night, seeking to escape a storm? It’s a tricky question – trickier than it might seem – and it lies at the heart of Josiah Allen and Indianna Bell’s twisty little horror tale. Quick to travel from a Glasgow Frightfest screening to Shudder, this economically constructed thriller has been winning fans on the festival circuit for months, and you’ll soon see why.
It’s built around powerful but very different performances from Brendan Rock and Jordan Cowan as the trailer resident and the visitor respectively. Middle-aged and a little on the plump side, with a fuzzy jumper and unkempt hair, he seems harmless despite his initially brusque manner – he’s hesitant to answer the door at night, he says, because local kids keep banging on it and then running away.

This debut feature steeps you in a kind of waking nightmare – with a shockingly brilliant final act you may not be able to forget
Get our weekend culture and lifestyle email
The debut feature from Adelaide film-makers Indianna Bell and Josiah Allen is thrillingly bold and inventive despite being steeped in familiar horror tropes: a darkened hallway, flashes of lightning, creaking walls and floorboards, the howling of wind. In this way, You’ll Never Find Me – which premiered at the 2023 Tribeca film festival and is released nationally on Thursday – reminded me of the pleasures of reading Edgar Allan Poe or Hp Lovecraft, whose narratives are filled with foundational horror elements but unfold with a kind of unselfconscious purity (or perhaps “sickliness” is a better word), coming alive in the magical ebb and flow of the prose.
There’s a feverishly wet and moody ambience to this film; it feels like it’s dripping all over you.

Each year there’s always a growing excitement for the start of FrightFest but opening with You’ll Never Find Me quickly quells that buzz.
This part of the Glasgow Film Festival is known for being completely different to the rest of the festival; the films are often a mix of absurd and crazy, a different kind of audience and very much its own thing with a unique personality. You are never short of interesting films even if they are generally poor – they will at least have a few moments throughout that spark joy.
So there is always an expectation that FrightFest’s opening gambit will be what sets the tone for the rest of the weekend. This is one of many issues with You’ll Never Find Me, it’s not absurd nor crazy and barely interesting. Much to the relief of FrightFest it certainly didn’t represent the festival as...

"We're all just out running something." Shudder has unveiled an official trailer for an indie horror thriller titled You'll Never Find Me, made in Australia by filmmakers Josiah Allen & Indianna Bell. This initially premiered at the 2023 Tribeca Film Festival, with screenings at Sitges, Fantastic Fest, Bucheon, Screamfest, Glasgow, and a few others. A thunderstorm brings a mysterious woman to Patrick's isolated mobile home. As the night unfolds, secrets and realities blur. Will she be able to leave? Or is something darker keeping her there? The film is an impressive indie creation set in mostly one contained space, featuring unsettling sound design and tricky performances to pull you into the horror game afoot. You'll Never Find Me stars Brendan Rock as the man and Jordan Cowan as the "guest" who shows up. If you love sneaky, mind-game horror this is definitely one I recommend - playing on Shudder in March. There's some good twists waiting within.

The festival’s competition section is one of the oldest in Australia and seeks to reward bold filmmaking. This year’s competition mostly comprised films by directors making their feature debuts.

After its Tribeca Premiere Josiah Allen and Indianna Bell’s You’ll Never Find Me has found a home at Shudder, we learned today.
“You’ll Never Find Me is a horror Trojan horse; a classic haunted house setup complete with howling winds, punishing rain, and blackouts allow for a unique exploration of ghosts,” Meagan wrote in her review. “It’s fitting for a feature that hinges on the core theme that appearances can be deceiving. While it bides its time to get there, reveling in the subtle details, extensive dialogue, and brooding mood along the way, Bell and Allen’s confident grasp on this story ensures it culminates in a finale that’ll haunt you.”
The feature debut from Allen and Bell stars Brendan Rock as an isolated man living at the back of a desolate caravan park who is visited by a desperate young woman (Jordan Cowan) seeking shelter from a violent storm.

The Melbourne International Film Festival has unveiled the full lineup for its 2023 edition, with “Shayda,” by Iranian-Australian director Noora Niasari, set as the opening title.
The festival will run as a live event August 3-20, at venues around the city and its suburbs, and online Aug 18 – 27. The hybrid format was developed during the Covid pandemic and Miff found it useful as a tool to reach further away audiences and wider demographics than a strictly in-theater edition.
The ‘Bright Horizons’ competition section open to films by first- or second-time feature directors contains an 11-title mix of new and recently-debuted works.
As well as opening the festival, “Shayda” will play in competition. The competition’s other Australian-made title was announced as “The Rooster,” from actor turned writer-director Mark Leonard Winter.
International titles in competition include “Banel & Adama,” by Franco-Senegalese director Ramata-Toulaye Sy, which played in competition in Cannes; “How to Have Sex,...

“It was a dark and stormy night” is an opening phrase instantly evocative of classic horror stories, a dramatic mood setter that evolved into a cliché and sometimes loving parody. You’ll Never Find Me, the feature directorial debut by Indianna Bell and Josiah Allen, is a somber tale set on a dark and stormy night. But the filmmakers instead reclaim the quintessential setup to blend grim, contemporary horror with a classic haunted house aesthetic, resulting in a claustrophobic, oft-unsettling chamber piece.
A torrential downpour late one evening brings an unexpected Visitor (Jordan Cowan) to a stranger’s door in a quiet Rv park. She’s soaked, on edge, and needs a phone to call for help. The man, Patrick (Brendon Rock), invites the Visitor inside to dry off and take refuge from the raging storm outside.

On a dark and stormy night, two strangers wait out the weather in a rundown caravan deep in Australia's coastal region. Tension mounts as the weathered trailer owner and his mysterious guest learn more about each other and the events that have drawn them both together, but these two don't reveal their secrets easily. Over the course of the night suspicions shift and fear rains down on the thin tin roof as the storm worsens, trapping the two disparate souls together.
Written and directed by Josiah Allen and Indianna Bell, You'll Never Find Me is a classic Chamber Piece that hinges on two demanding performances from its lead actors. The dread-filled slow burn stars Brendan Rock (Danger 5) as Patrick, a lonely man haunted by his past, and Jordan Cowan (Wolf Creek 2) whose cautiously alert character is known only as The Visitor. The script is tight, the dialogue is sharp,...
