    This comes out tomorrow, looks interesting and is getting real good reviews so far. I'm gonna see it either tomorrow or saturday. Here's the info on the movie and the trailer, then I'll post the red band trailer below that too. I actually haven't watched the red band trailer and aren't going to since it's so close to the release.

    A band straying into a secluded part of Virginia stumbles onto a horrific act of violence. Because they are the only witnesses, they become the targets of a terrifying g--- of white power skinheads who want to make sure all the evidence is eliminated.

    Like Blue Ruin, it's a brutal, concise, sharply executed thriller about characters who are ill-equipped to be in one. It takes a few leaps in logic to get to a more audience satisfying conclusion, but overall it offers sustained intensity and tension that is rarely seen in like-minded Hollywood fare.

    It's a crowd-pleaser in its own perverse sort of way.

    Saw it last night and wasn't too impressed, it kinda bored me. Some good acting and the build was exciting for a bit but I didn't really care for it overall.

    I heard about this and want to check it out, though your post @Kon lowered the hype a bit. Which might be a good thing.

    I watched Blue Ruin last night which was visually impressive and had a great tone and rhythm throughout but some serious plot issues/script issues. I've heard mixed things about Green Room. @Raz called it a masterpiece. Looking forward to it.
