Intense Trailer for Unhinged Thriller SURGE Starring Ben Whishaw
A new trailer has been released for the thriller Cracked, which follows the unraveling of a man whose life is becoming too much for him to bear. The movie is led by Ben Whishaw (A Very English Scandal, Fargo), and is directed by Aneil Karia (Top Boy, The Long Goodbye). The film originally premiered at Sundance in 2020, and this trailer is released ahead of the film’s UK release.
In the film, “Joseph (Whishaw) is trapped in a soulless job, living a life devoid of emotion and meaning. After an impulsive act of rebellion, Joseph unleashes a wilder version of himself. He is propelled on a reckless journey through London, ultimately experiencing what it feels like to be alive.”
The movie looks really intense, but also incredibly sad. Knowing people with mental illness, this looks like a worst case scenario for someone who has reached their boiling point. But it does looks like a real and raw performance.
Check out the trailer below, and keep an eye out for Surge once it gets US distribution.
