We’ve been inundated with images from Harmony Korine‘s SPRING BREAKERS for months now, as well as a clip featuring James Franco as a drug dealer named Alien interacting with four young, impressionable, tenacious, and violent bikini-clad girls in the form of Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson, Vanessa Hudgins, and Rachel Korine. Now, the wait for a proper look at the film has arrived with not one, but two different trailers, each with similar levels of crazy. I still don’t know exactly what kind of movie this will be, but hot damn, bikinis, guns, Franco, club music, sports cars, and did I mention bikinis? I’m all in, baby.
Here’s the U.S. Trailer:
Here’s the synopsis:
Four college girls who land in jail after robbing a restaurant in order to fund their spring break vacation find themselves bailed out by a drug and arms dealer who wants them to do some dirty work.
Dare I say, this actually looks like it will have some depth to it (I know, i know, sounds nuts) as it looks more like a cautionary tale, rather than a straight up exploitation film. Either way, my intrigue knows no limits and I look forward to seeing an over-the-top performance from Franco and four girls go past the point of no return, while wearing bikinis, masks, and clutching automatic weapons.
SPRING BREAKERS opens March 29, 2013.
