Phobia is a 1988 Australian film written and directed by John Dingwall.
Dingwall wanted to make the film for as low a budget as possible so wrote it around two characters and one location.
[3] Paul Thompson was meant to star opposite Gosia Dobrowolska but he dropped out of the project at the least moment and was replaced by Sean Scully.
Dingwall mortgaged his house to pay for the budget himself.
It was nominated for Sean Scully as Best Actor at the AFI awards in 1988.
