Kill List and High-Rise director Ben Wheatley’s latest style-soaked genre film Free Fire had its premiere last night at the Toronto International Film Festival’s opening Midnight Madness screening and today, distributor A24 has released the ruthless Red Band trailer.
From the tensely atmospheric opening shots, it is obvious that Free Fire is another stunner from one of today’s greatest genre filmmakers.
Says Midnight Madness programmer Colin Geddes about the film: Tight action choreography and an even tighter script by Wheatley and his filmmaking partner Amy Jump make the compact war zone of Free Fire crackle with heart-stopping action and offbeat humour, the witty banter ricocheting as furiously as the bullets.
