Miley Tunnecliffe on building tangible horror in her feature film debut Proclivitas
Episode 13
Wednesday, 18 March, 2026
West Aussie filmmaker Miley Tunnecliffe makes the shift from shorts to features with her debut feature length film Proclivitas. This familial horror-drama film features Clare (an impressive grounded performance from Rose Riley), an addict in recovery who returns to her hometown to tidy up her mother's house after her sudden death. Returning home, Clare connects with her old flame Jerry (a superb George Mason), and the two bond over an unresolved trauma from their youth. As Clare's time at home continues, the demons that plague her mind and memories start to re-emerge. The following interview with Miley sees her talking through her process of working in comedy and then shifting to horror, the grounded nature of the film, and more. Proclivitas recently opened the 2026 WA Made Film Festival where Miley and producer Kate Separovich were in attendance. The film opens in Australian cinemas on 19 March 2026. I'll be hosting a Q&A session at Luna Leederville on 24 March 2026 with Kate Separovich and actor Hayley McElhinney in attendance. For Perth locals, we have five double passes to giveaway for the Q&A screening.
