It feels like we’ve been covering THE DIVIDE forever (in actuality it’s only been about two years), but thankfully the Xavier Gens-directed thriller is now on its way to the big screen – and a full trailer has finally emerged. An effective one, too. I’ve heard very mixed things about this film, but if I were going solely on the new preview, I’d be completely sold.
The synopsis: When a mysterious cataclysmic bomb devastates New York, eight strangers take refuge in the basement of their apartment building. The residents soon succumb to cabin fever as fear of sickness, dwindling supplies, and ruthless outside invaders, plays on their mind. However Eva, the only young woman, has her own worries as the men begin to regress into dangerous packs. She quickly learns to be ruthless if she wants to survive, aware that her sanctuary is becoming her hell. Will her survival ultimately be at the expense of her humanity?
THE DIVIDE, starring Michael Biehn, Rosanna Arquette, Milo Ventimiglia, Courtney B. Vance and Lauren German, opens on JANUARY 13th in limited release from Anchor Bay Films.
