The guiltiest of guilty pleasures has a brand new UK trailer and poster. My Bloody Valentine 3D director Patrick Lussier premiered his new film, Drive Angry 3D, at Harry Knowles‘ Butt-numb-a-thon this month, gearing up for a February release. Drew at HitFix called the film a ton of fun in his full review here.
The throwback actioner stars Nicolas Cage, Amber Heard, William Fichtner, David Morse, Billy Burke and Tom Atkins. While I thought the first trailer was trying a little too hard, this UK one seems to capture the right tone. Check it out below via Bleeding Cool and a poster quad above.
Synopsis: Milton, a hardened felon has broken out of hell for one last chance at redemption. Intent on stopping a vicious cult who murdered his daughter, he has three days to stop them before they sacrifice her baby beneath a full moon. He’s joined by Piper – a young, sexy waitress who liberates her ex-boyfriend’s cherry-red muscle car in order to help Milton. Now, the two of them are hot on the trail of the deadly leader of the cult, Jonah King, who believes it is his destiny to use the baby to unleash hell on earth. But the bloodthirsty cult is the least of Milton’s problems. The police are after him too. And worse, an enigmatic killer known only as “The Accountant” – who has been sent by the Devil to retrieve Milton and deliver him back to hell. With wicked cunning and hypnotic savagery, the Accountant will relentlessly pursue Milton at high speed across the country until his mission is accomplished. Fueled by high octane and pure rage, Milton must use his anger to go beyond all human limits to avenge his daughter’s murder, before his last chance at redemption is revoked.
Drive Angry 3D hits theaters February 25th, 2011.
