We're now less than two weeks out from the release of THE BELKO EXPERIMENT, and in anticipation of the film's theatrical debut a batch of cool posters have arrived online. Nerdist got the exclusive first look at the posters, which can now be seen below.

Described as "BATTLE ROYALE meets OFFICE SPACE", THE BELKO EXPERIMENT was directed by Greg McLean from a screenplay by James Gunn. It's about what happens when 

an American company in South America is mysteriously sealed off at the beginning of a workday, its employees ordered to kill each other or be killed themselves. This starts an escalation of violence, where we discover the true nature of each and every Belko employee.

The office setting is reflected in these new posters, which tell you to "Choose Your Weapon" and then offer up the paltry options that would be found around a cubicle. A cup, a phone, some tape, a pencil. John Wick would advise that you choose the pencil.

John Gallagher Jr., Tony Goldwyn, Adria Arjona, Michael Rooker, Melonie Diaz, John C. McGinley, Sean Gunn, Owain Yeoman, David Dastmalchian, Gail Bean, Valentine Miele, Steve Agee, Josh Brener, David Del Rio, Stephen Blackehart, Rusty Schwimmer, James Earl, Brent Sexton, Mikaela Hoover, Joe Fria, Benjamin Byron Davis, Abraham Benrubi, and Cindy Better star in the film, which will be released on March 17th.

After watching THE BELKO EXPERIMENT at the Toronto International Film Festival, our own Chris Bumbray gave it a 7/10 review.
