A Field In England

A Field In England

Ben Wheatley is a filmmaker to keep an eye on this year as he returns to the director's chair with A Field In England.

It was just last year that Wheatley was whipping up a storm with his black comedy Sightseers and now he is back with his movie that is set during the Civil War.

And we have the fantastic new trailer for the film for you to take a look at:

Wheatley has made a name for himself with movies such as Down Terrace and Kill List and he is set to see his star rise even further as A Field IN England will be the first film to be released in cinemas, on free TV, on DVD and on Video-on-Demand on the same day.

The director has once again teamed up with Amy Jump - together they penned the script for Kill List - to write the screenplay and he has brought together a great cast list.

Julian Barratt, Michael Smiley, Reece Shearsmith and Peter Ferdinando are all on board and A Field In England is set to be one of the British movies not to miss this year.

England during the Civil War. A small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field. They are captured by two men: O'Neil and Cutler.

O'Neil (Michael Smiley), an alchemist, forces the group to aid him in his search to find a hidden treasure that he believes is buried in the field.

Crossing a vast mushroom circle, which provides their first meal, the group quickly descend into a chaos of arguments, fighting and paranoia, and, as it becomes clear that the treasure might be something other than gold, they slowly become victim to the terrifying energies trapped inside the field.

So if you are looking for some alternate viewing this summer then A Field In England could well be the movie for you.

A Field In England is released 5th July.
