On-screen text sets the scene for Dagr, clarifying that the unfolding film is video footage from an ongoing homicide investigation that professional filmmakers have edited. The opening footage establishes central characters Louise (Riz Moritz) and Thea (Ellie Duckles), best friends who are fame-seeking YouTubers with a huge following. The pair disguise their faces in order to make their videos, where they commit crimes such as theft and graffiti in the name of justice.
For their next video, the pair arrive at a lavish house where a commercial is being filmed. As the duo intend to steal fancy items to donate to the poor, they are unaware that the filming crew have accidentally awakened a druid demon from the past. What unfolds are strange occurrences which threaten their lives.

Matthew Butler-Hart’s film lurches from social-media comedy to shaky-cam bloodletting, but never comes near the primeval emotions of the Blair Witch Project it so often references
At one point in this found-footage paganistic slasher from British director Matthew Butler-Hart, Thea (Ellie Duckles), one of a pair of stereotypically annoying YouTubers, ironically performs the “I’m so sorry” monologue from the Blair Witch Project to camera. Dagr also comes prefaced with a Blair Witch-style opening statement that it has been cobbled together from their final footage. But Butler-Hart’s film doesn’t get anywhere near Blair Witch levels of primeval emotions – partly because of an ambitious and perhaps over-fussy structure, and partly because its digital-age perma-snark tone cancels out fear for much of it.
Thea and her running buddy Louise (Riz Moritz) pride themselves on being online Robin Hoods – filming “heists” of swag from the rich with their faces plastered over with giant emoticons,...

Exclusive: Netflix is going it alone on The A List after the BBC decided against commissioning a second season of the teen drama.
Produced by Lionsgate-Backed Kindle Entertainment, the 13-part first season of The A List was commissioned for the BBC’s streaming service iPlayer. It launched on iPlayer in October last year before being picked up by Netflix in July 2019, with the U.S. streamer carrying the drama globally except in the UK.
Nina Metivier, who co-created and wrote The A List with Dan Berlinka, told Deadline that the BBC has since backed out of the project and they are now developing a second season exclusively for Netflix.
“It was picked up by Netflix for worldwide and now they’re looking at a second series,” she said in an interview after being named as one of Deadline’s 10 British TV writers to watch in 2020.

“The A List” are set for Netflix in the U.S. and around the world after the streamer picked up the U.K.-produced teen drama.
The supernatural thriller series is set in what appears to be an idyllic island summer camp. Mia, played by Lisa Ambalavanar, arrives there expecting the holiday of a lifetime, but the trip turns into a twisted nightmare with the arrival of the mysterious Amber (Ellie Duckles).
Kindle Entertainment produced the 13-part series, which bowed on the iPlayer, the catchup and on-demand service of U.K. pubcaster the BBC. It was written by Dan Berlinka and Nina Metivier (“Doctor Who”), and executive produced by Kindle’s Anne Brogan (“Hank Zipzer”).
Kindle is backed by Lionsgate, which distributes “The A List” and did the Netflix deal. The streamer has it everywhere except the U.K.
