Ben Wheatley's super dark comedy
Sightseers hits UK cinemas November 30th already riding a wave of glowing press from its international festival run. A road romance gone wrong,
Sightseers lives in something of a sweet spot between Wheatley's previous two features -
Down Terrace and
Kill List - as it neatly balances the comedy and more violent elements.
Chris (Steve Oram THE MIGHTY BOOSH) wants to show Tina (Alice Lowe
GARTH MARENGHI'S DARK PLACE) his world and he wants to do it his way -
on a journey through the British Isles in his beloved Abbey Oxford
Caravan. Tina's led a sheltered life and there are things that Chris
needs her to see - the Crich Tramway Museum, the Ribblehead Viaduct, the
Keswick Pencil Museum and the rolling countryside that accompanies
these wonders in his life.
But it doesn't take long for the dream to fade. Litterbugs, noisy
teenagers and pre-booked caravan sites, not to mention Tina's meddling
mother, soon conspire to shatter Chris's dreams and send him, and anyone
who rubs him up the wrong way, over a very jagged edge...
We're big fans of this one in these parts, check the new trailer below.
