Trippy Trailer for Ben Wheatley's A FIELD IN ENGLAND

TrailerMovie by Joey Paur

 

I'm a fan of Ben Wheatley's twisted films that include Kill List and Sightseers. Both of those movie were insane, and it looks like A Field in England is going to be just as entertaining. The story is set in the Civil War era, and it follows a group of soldiers who stumble upon a mushroom field, and from there things get wild. The first trailer for the film has been released, and it's pretty trippy. It doesn't give us a lot to go off of, just a lot of randomness, so I have no idea what's really in store for us, but I'm sure it will be great.

England during the English Civil War. A small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field. They are captured by two men: O’Neil and Cutler. O’Neil (Michael Smiley), an alchemist, forces the group to aid him in his search to find a hidden treasure that he believes is buried in the field. Crossing a vast mushroom circle, which provides their first meal, the group quickly descend into a chaos of arguments, fighting and paranoia, and, as it becomes clear that the treasure might be something other than gold, they slowly become victim to the terrifying energies trapped inside the field.

A Field in England will be released in UK theaters, DVD, Blu-ray, VOD and Film 4 on July 5th. Drafthouse Films will release it in the U.S. later this year.
