Our take

A knockout debut from writer-director Prano Bailey-Bond, Censor is a delirious ode to the 1980s “Video Nasty” era, Britain’s golden age of VHS horror. A hallucinatory dive down a rabbit-hole of repressed trauma and psychological fracture, this meticulously textured chiller cuts to the bone.
