Back in late April we brought you the first teaser for Mike Nelson's The Retirement of Joe Corduroy. A twenty minute short in the style of classic 70's revenge pictures the film was mostly complete at the time and looking for finishing funds via a Kickstarter campaign. I was impressed enough to chip in a few bucks and today was rewarded with an announcement of a brand new trailer.
The trailer is a little bit of a mixed success with some of the support players feeling a little bit weak. But everything revolving around the title character - which is just about everything - is absolutely bang on perfect with Nelson showing a remarkable knack for getting the little details right. Check it out below.Joe Corduroy is retiring. He has approached the beginning of the end. After his nephew is put into a coma due to a mindless act of violence, this gentle dentist declares payback on the lowly scum of the streets. In an act of vengeance, Joe scours the streets for unsuspecting criminals to enforce his own form of vigilante justice; a bullet in the back.
