“Are we not men!? *slams utensil into table*”
…That’s gonna be a meme in due time, methinks. That’s also Nicolas Cage as seen in the official trailer for Arcadian, coming to theaters from RLJE Films and Shudder on April 12. It’s about time too seeing as the first look was released over a year ago.
Formerly titled “Sand And Stones,” Arcadian reteams Cage with director Benjamin Brewer following their previous SXSW crime thriller entry, The Trust. The film was written by Braven scribe Michael Nilon, and also stars Jaeden Martell, Maxwell Jenkins and Sadie Soverall as it hails the SXSW return of Cage and Brewer next week.
In a near future, normal life on Earth has been decimated. Paul and his two sons, Thomas and Joseph, have been living a half-life – tranquility by day and torment by night. One day, Thomas doesn’t return home on time from a visit to his crush, the nearby farm girl, Charlotte. Paul chooses to leave the safety of their fortified farm, risking his life to find Thomas. Just as he finds his boy, a nightmarish battle ensues. Back at the house, Joseph is scared and all alone to defend himself against the nightly attack.
Enjoy the trailer!
