Claustrophobic Trailer For Alexandre Aja's Contained Sci-Fi Thriller OXYGEN Starring Mélanie Laurent
Netflix has released a thrilling trailer for the upcoming sci-fi film Oxygen. The film comes from director Alexandre Aja (Crawl) and the film stars Mélanie Laurent (Inglourious Basterds) as a woman who wakes up in a cryogenic unit with no memory. “Quickly running out of oxygen, she must find a way to remember who she is in order to survive.”
It looks like a great film involving a frightening scenario for something to be stuck in. As you’ll see, this is going to be a very claustrophobic movie as the story is contained in a cryogenic unit. When talking about the film with Collider, the filmmaker said:
“I remember reading Christie LeBlanc’s script when it appeared on the Black List and feeling like it captured such an intense experience of survival so well. It got me thinking of the best of Buried, but with a 28 Days Later twist. I was in it all the way, I pictured myself waking up locked in this cryo unit, trying to figure out who put me there and why, I felt her desperation.”
The cast of the film also includes Mathieu Amalric, Marc Saez, and Malik Zidi. The film will premiere on Netflix on May 12th.
