There’s always room for some good old-fashioned R-rated action and comedy and Calvary helmer John Michael McDonagh is here to harness that with his latest, War On Everyone. The film premiered at the Berlinale in 2016 and showcased at SXSW back in March to much avail and judging by IGN’s newest red-band trailer, it’s easy to see why.
War on Everyone follows two corrupt cops in New Mexico who set out to blackmail and frame every criminal unfortunate enough to cross their path. Things take a sinister turn, however, when they try to intimidate someone who is more dangerous than they are. Or is he?
“In an era of increasingly heightened tensions across America between law enforcement agencies and the communities they vow to serve and protect, it gives me great pleasure to announce that Saban Films has the guts to take on US distribution of War on Everyone, a film that is totally irresponsible, deliberately inflammatory, and completely lacking in any redeeming social or moral value whatsoever. Venceremos!”
