There’s a secret at the heart of The Beldham – and the audience and new mother Harper are the ones trying to figure it out. The new psychological horror received its North American premiere on Friday at the Austin Film Festival. The maternal horror focuses on Harper (played by Halt and Catch Fire’s Katie Parker), who is fighting to save her newborn child from the Beldham, a birdlike figure who steals the breath from babies. Yet the black wings and black cloak of the Beldham hide a secret, the kind that, once revealed, makes the viewer reconsider every scene, every interaction, that’s gone before – and that’s exactly the response that writer/director Angela Gulner wants to elicit.

I’ve seen the title of the British sci-fi comedy Time Travel Is Dangerous! stylized with and without the exclamation point, but I say keep it. It’s sweetly earned. The script, credited to director Chris Reading and sisters Anna-Elizabeth Shakespeare and Hillary Shakespeare, wastes no time setting up the goofy premise. Underachiever best friends Ruth and Megan (played by real-life best friends Ruth Syratt and Megan Stevenson) run a vintage shop in a London suburb. Where do they source their inventory of surprisingly authentic artifacts? Well, turns out Ruth and Megan stumbled onto a time machine and have been using it to steal stuff across history – from the Visigoths to Napoleonic times and the American West – and sell it in their shop. Will their casualness about messing with the time-space continuum – which they know, or care, nil about – come back to haunt them? You betcha!
