Bad Day At The Office Sets UK and Irish Cinema Release

Bad Day At The Office, a first-person action thriller directed by Chee Keong Cheung and starring John Hannah (The Mummy), Radha Mitchell, Tamer Hassan and Lana Parrilla, will arrive in UK and Irish cinemas on 30 October. The film will also be available in 4DX and 3D at selected cinemas.

The story follows Karl (Hannah), who wakes up in a wrecked hotel room with a splitting headache and no memory of what happened, where he is or even who he is. When he discovers a dead body in the bathtub and two police officers arrive at his door, he is thrown into a deadly conspiracy. Alongside Molly (Mitchell), a hotel maid, Karl must navigate a world of confusion and violence while being hunted by people determined to kill him.

One of the film’s defining features is its visual approach. Shot entirely in first person using GoPro cameras, Bad Day At The Office places audiences directly in the middle of the action, capturing every punch, chase and explosion from the perspectives of its protagonists and antagonists. The result blends the intensity of an action thriller with the immersive experience of a first-person video game.

The film celebrated its world premiere at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, where it opened the Midnight Madness section.
