Teaser Trailer for Kevin Smith's RED STATE
Kevin Smith has released the teaser trailer for his upcoming new horror film Red State, which is set to premiere at The Sundance Film festival, where Smith will auction off the rights. The film stars Michael Angarano, Kerry Bishe, Nicholas Braun, Kyle Gallner, John Goodman, Melissa Leo, Michael Parks, Kevin Pollak and Stephen Root.
The movie looks a lot different from any other film that smith has made in the film, and I'm looking forward to seeing it! Here's the films plot synopsis:
Ever since Clerks (cowinner of the Filmmakers Trophy at the 1994 Sundance Film Festival), Kevin Smith has been known for his sharp, subversive, comedic writing. He shifts from comedy to horror with Red State and aptly demonstrates that good writing transcends genre.
Red State begins by following three horny high-school boys who come across an online ad from an older woman looking for a gang bang. Boys being boys, they hit the road to satisfy their libidinal urges. But what begins as a fantasy takes a dark turn as they come face-to-face with a terrifying “holy” force with a fatal agenda.
Instead of relying on archetypes and predictable formulas, Smith meticulously fashions all-too-real characters, utilizing exceptional performances (notably by Michael Parks) and an intelligent script. His realistic style gives the film an intimate feeling, heightening the terror to biblical proportions. Red State is a shocking new kind of horror film that aggressively confronts higher powers and extreme doctrines with a vengeance.
According to the teaser trailer the movie will come out in March, even though it doesn't have a distributor. Watch the teaser trailer below and tell us what you think!
