Typo could be just a thriller or a story about abuse, but it takes us in some very different directions as it crosses at times slap bang into the horror genre exploring more of the psychosis of an abused person on the break of collapse. So if you like your movies a little off centre on the weird side you will probably love this. Most of the film is in flashback as the protagonist Abbie explains why she feels the way she does as it slowly unravels and expands to explain why her husband has been confined to bed, unable to talk. Director, producer Antony Meadley has put the film together to make what could be a uncomfortable viewing, very watchable. I enjoyed his other feature Off-piste as well and although he was the producer and Cinematography on that, this film has a very different ambience to it. I notice this very British movie was filmed in East Germany which gives it a strange surreal feel. Beware contains violence that some may or may not like, but in the area of this film was probably needed to show a woman on the edge. The villain plays a real nasty piece of work, only acting and I'm sure I've seen him on Britain's Got Talent getting thrown off by Simon Cowell. I've said this before don't go into this movie expecting an action packed Marvel film, It's an independent British film that you have to take back and understand the reasoning and message behind it. I'm not going to give anything away but don't turn it off at the end credits as there is not only a lovely end song but also you will miss out on a post credit end.
