‘The Horsemen’ Trailer

Hey, did you hear the one about the serial killer who killed his victims based on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse? Â  Yeah, it wasn’t that funny, anyway.

‘The Horsemen’ stars Dennis Quaid as a recently widowed detective on the trail of said serial killer. Â  It comes to us from Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes, whose recent film ‘The Unborn’ was the first non-remake they had in release.

You can check out the trailer for ‘The Horsemen’ right here:

The film was directed by Jonas Akerlund (‘Spun’) and also stars Ziyi Zhang, Clifton Collins Jr., Patrick Fugit, Eric Balfour, and Peter Stormare. Â  It goes into limited release on March 13th.

The trailer came from Trailer Addict, but thanks go out to Alex over at First Showing for giving us the heads up.

International Poster for ‘The Horsemen’

Above you see the international poster for ‘The Horsemen’, the new thriller by Swedish filmmaker Jonas Akerlund. Â  For a point of reference on the director, he’s the guy who directed the controversial music video for The Prodigy’s “Smack My Bitch Up”. Â  He also directed the underrated, drug movie ‘Spun’ in 2002.

‘The Horsemen’ follows Dennis Quaid as a  recently widowed detective still grieving over his wife’s death.   He  discovers a shocking connection between himself and the suspects in a serial killing spree linked to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

That poster is pretty damned creepy. Â  I’m sure the MPAA will never let anything like that get a release in the states.

What do you think? Â  Does the film sound intriguing to you? Â  Does it sound a little too much like ‘Seven’? Â  Whatever happened to The Prodigy? Â  Let us know by commenting below!
