Riveting Trailer For The Psychological Thriller THE VANISHING which Follows 3 Lighthouse Keepers Who Battle for Survival
Saban Films has released a trailer for a fantastic-looking psychological thriller called The Vanishing. The film stars Gerard Butler (London Has Fallen, 300), Peter Mullan (Session 9, Braveheart), and newcomer Connor Swindells.
The film is based on a true story of an unsolved local legend known as the Flannan Isle mystery. The three actors take on the role of lighthouse keepers who end up coming across some gold and this leads them on a deadly journey of survival.
I enjoy stories like this and this movie looks like a solid, well-made film. I especially like that the film stars Butler and Mullan. They’re great. Here’s the synopsis:
On an uninhabited island 20 miles from the rugged Scottish coast, three lighthouse keepers arrive for their 6-week shift. As they settle into their normal quiet routine, something unexpected, potentially life-changing occurs – they stumble upon gold. What follows is a tense battle for survival, fed by isolation, paranoia and greed, leading three honest men down a path to destruction.
The Vanishing was directed by Kristoffer Nyholm (The Killing, The Enfield Haunting) from a script written by Celyn Jones (Set Fire to the Stars) and Joe Bone (Castles in the Sky)
The Vanishing will be in select US theaters starting in January 2019.
