Await Further Instructions is a 2018 British science-fiction horror film written by Gavin Williams and directed by Johnny Kevorkian. The film follows the members of a dysfunctional family who are trapped in their house on Christmas by a mysterious black membrane that begins to send them cryptic instructions through text that appears on their television.
Plot[edit]
Nick travels to the home of his parents, Tony and Beth, to spend Christmas there and introduce the family to his girlfriend Annji even though he has a strained relationship with them at best. His pregnant sister Kate, her husband Scott, and his grandfather are also there. Tensions arise after Kate and the grandfather both make racist remarks to Annji, who is of Indian descent. The family members quickly find that they are surrounded by a strange black substance and that they cannot leave the home. They receive messages warning them that their food is contaminated and instructing them to cleanse themselves with bleach, as well as take vaccines which are dropped down their chimney. Annji is suspicious of the vaccines as the syringes look used, but Tony forces everyone to inject them. The grandfather suddenly dies while vomiting black liquid.
Text appears on the television screen in the living room, informing them that one of them is infected. Tony, Beth, Kate, and Scott believe it to be Annji and lock her in an upstairs bedroom with the grandfather’s corpse despite Nick’s protests. Nick unplugs the television, but Tony plugs it back in and warns Nick against unplugging it again. Kate urges Scott to attack Nick, but she is injured in the chaos. A desperate Nick tries to find a way to secretly flee the home, only for the television to reveal this to the others. He attaches his phone to a long stick and uses it to record footage of the space where the toilet pipe leaves the house, capturing footage of a snake-like entity attacking the phone. Tony and Scott rush in, knock him unconscious, and drag him downstairs. The television tells them that Nick is a spy and that they must get information from him. Tony refuses to look at the phone footage and tortures Nick until Beth interrupts them to let them know that Kate has died.
The surviving family members are told to return to the first floor as the television is activating quarantine. Nick is able to get Annji downstairs but is unable to save Beth, who dies after being exposed to a mysterious black smoke. Nick and Annji rush downstairs to find the television displaying a bright light before Nick unplugs it. However, the light stays on and the house begins shaking. The television proclaims that it is being «resurrected» just before Nick passes out. He awakens to find that he and Annji have been restrained, and that the television wants Tony and Scott to sacrifice them. Tony attempts to kill Annji with an axe but Nick and Scott stop him, prompting him to murder Scott with the axe before fighting Nick. Tony is killed when Nick crushes his head with the television, which then pulls itself upright before the black wires crawl out of it and enter the back of Tony’s head to take control of his corpse.
Nick and Annji realise that the black substance is composed entirely of the living wires. Nick confronts the wires and throws the axe into the television. The wires seemingly die, but soon begin moving without the television’s help. Tony, being controlled by the wires, kills Nick and Annji with the axe. The wires digest Kate’s body, leaving only her skeletal remains and her newborn baby. Tony brings in another television, which names the baby «Ruby» and displays colourful patterns to get her attention before changing to text that says «worship me». Outside, it is revealed that every single house has been wrapped in the same black wires.

Williams began writing the script after listening to the song «Apartment Story» by The National, taking inspiration from the lyric: «Stay indoors until somebody finds you / Do whatever the TV tells you.»[2] Filming took place in Yorkshire.[3]

Мой ЖУТКИЙ Телеграм!
Пока в Голливуде издеваются над «Суспирией», британцы продолжают радовать малобюджетными, но приличными ужастиками, которые, по крайней мере, не являются ужасными ремейками. Один из них – «Ожидайте дальнейших инструкций» 2018 года о простой британской семье, застигнутой в канун Рождества крайне необычным бедствием.
Осторожно! Спойлеры. Если пропустили, посмотрите «Ожидайте дальнейших инструкций» сами, это отличный фильм с неожиданно актуальными смыслами даже помимо тех, что были вложены в него изначально. А, может, ОНИ ЗНАЛИ???👽
Фильм ужасов «Ожидайте дальнейших инструкций» 2018: сюжет
Собравшись под Рождество в своем доме, большая британская семья внезапно оказывается намертво блокирована в своем доме неведомой массой, сплошь состоящей из непробиваемых железных… тентаклей. Связи с внешним миром нет, ни телефонная линия, ни интернет не работают. А на экране ТВ высвечивается надпись «Оставайтесь дома и ожидайте дальнейших инструкций». Что случилось? Ядерная война? Эпидемия? Нападение пришельцев? Эксперимент правительства? Или…
Фильм ужасов «Ожидайте дальнейших инструкций» 2018: плюсы
На деле хоть фильм камерный и малобюджетный, он получился крепко сколоченным, с интригующим сюжетом и впечатляющей концовкой. И даже крылатым высказыванием от отца семейства «Будь лучшим в свой худший день». Последние 10 минут тентаклей, черного дыма и младенца, к которому тентакли обращаются с умоляющей просьбой ПОКЛОНИСЬ МНЕ! вообще великолепны.
Ну и конечно здесь поднимаются серьезные вопросы: нужно ли верить всему, что говорят по ТВ, например. Есть наблюдения о разнице поколений: так, отец свято верит ТВ, а под конец сравнивает телевидение с Христом (без шуток). В то же время молодежь предпочитает буквально умереть, чем жить с промытыми мозгами. Ну и мораль: нечего приезжать к семье на праздники. Шучу. Она в другом. Хотя, не исключаю, что и в этом.
Фильм ужасов «Ожидайте дальнейших инструкций» 2018: минусы
Скандальная британская семья все же вызывала некоторое недоумение своим желанием ни за что ни про что убивать и калечить друг друга, притом что они даже не распивали спиртные напитки (вроде бы). Также концовка могла быть чуть-чуть поинтересней, чем притча о том, что пора выключить ТВ с передачами Малахова и пойти прогуляться. С другой стороны, все это подано динамично и захватывающе, так что придираться не хочется.
Фильм ужасов «Ожидайте дальнейших инструкций» 2018: интересное
Одна из задач, которую ставит телевизор перед семейством – уколоться неизвестным препаратом, отчего отъезжает дедуля. Ничего не напоминает? Нет?
Буйство проводов в финальной сцене – отсылка к “Тэцуо”.
Схожий сюжет был в фильме для ТВ Hammer House Of Mystery And Suspense Child’s Play 1984. Там семья тоже застревала в ужасном доме без возможности выбраться… и концовка тоже была мрачной. Хотя совершенно в ином духе, чем в “Ожидайте дальнейших инструкций”.
Фильм собрал в прокате 3800 долларов, правда, добрал кассу за счет показов на Нетфликс. Этот фильм. Нетфликс. О, ирония!
Вердикт фильму ужасов “Ожидайте дальнейших инструкций” 2018: 8 из 10. Да, простенько, в некоторых аспектах даже банальненько, но неплохо. Можно посмотреть. Вместо Малахова с его душераздирающими передачами про чьи-то грязные трусы, в том числе.
