Dune Drifter is a 2020 British science fiction film written and directed by Marc Price and produced by Michelle Parkyn. It stars Phoebe Sparrow, Daisy Aitkens, Simon Dwyer Thomas, Alastair Kirton, Richard Corgan, and Michael Geary.
Exterior filming took place in 2019 on location in Iceland, taking advantage of the natural rock formations and geysers to build an otherworldly atmosphere. The interiors of the spaceship cockpits were done in Price's flat, in an effort to reduce budget costs. This was achieved by building a cockpit set and using projectors and backdrops to mimic an outer space atmosphere.
Dune Drifter premiered at the 2020 Frightfest film festival on 24 October 2020, with screenings held at the Leeds International Film Festival on 3 November 2020. It was released on DVD on 1 December 2020.
