We’ve been tracking Darren Ward’s hardcore action-thriller A DAY OF VIOLENCE for about three years now (hell, we’ve already reviewed the sucker). The lucky folks in the UK got an opportunity to check it out when it was released over there last month on DVD; us chumps in the states are still awaiting a proper release here. Until that happens, we’ll have to be content with some more horrific imagery from the feature, which really does seem to be off its nut in a major way. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that!)
Director Darren Ward just passed along a bunch of new posters that he’s preparing to use to help sell the film at this year’s American Film Market (yep, it’s almost that time of year again). Give them a look and be sure to realize that these aren’t exactly SFW…
Mitchell Parker lies dead on a morgue slab. In life, Mitchell served the low ranks of debt collectors, surrounded by all of the filth and scum that the world had to offer. He thought his luck was in when on a routine collection he stumbles across 100,000 cash hidden in the flat of one of his clients a deadly mistake which could cost him his life. A dark and haunted past hangs over Mitchell s head, and one that will ultimately lead him on a journey of murder, redemption and sacrifice. Hunted by a ruthless gang for the stolen money, he must evade capture and rid himself of his demons once and for all.
Let’s hope we’ll hear some news about A DAY OF VIOLENCE finally heading to US shores sometime soon.
