Pouncer

2012 · 15 min

A quirky, affectionate mockumentary that treats a silly job with deadpan seriousness, amusing more than it scares.

Directed by
Louis Paxton
Overview
Roddy loves his job as a 'Jumper-Outer' on Edinburgh's ghost tours... probably too much. Join him on a fear odyssey into the heart of his craft, learning the tricks of the trade and the philosophy of 'The Pounce'.
