A few days ago, we keyed you in on a dark little film noir called BREATHLESS, which stars Val Kilmer and Gina Gershon. (C’mon, it doesn’t get any seedier than that!) Now we’ve got the trailer for you; check it out below.

Is it just me or does it appear that nearly the entire damn film takes place inside that trailer? I don’t know if I want to spend 90 minutes inside of that thing…


In Texas the most deadly weapon is an unappreciated woman. This August, Anchor Bay Films presents the gory, cunning comedy/thriller that will leave a welcomed bad taste in your mouth with BREATHLESS. This Texas gothic tale from director Jesse Baget (WRESTLEMANIAC, the upcoming CELLMATES) and Academy Award winning executive producer Nicolas Chartier (THE HURT LOCKER) comes to Blu-ray/DVD Combo and DVD on August 14th.


Lorna (Gina Gershon, SHOWGIRLS, P.S. I LOVE YOU) is a strong-willed Texas woman who’s had enough of her untrustworthy husband Dale’s (Val Kilmer, TOP GUN, BATMAN FOREVER) criminal acts and lack of husbandry. Fed up, she enlists the help of her old friend, Tiny (Kelli Giddish, NBC’s “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit”), to help her figure out what to do with Dale after his latest double-cross involving the theft of $100,000 from a bank.


As the girls brainstorm for a “neat” solution, they medicate themselves with only the best of prescriptions – Tennessee whiskey – which leads them to even bigger problems. When Sheriff Cooley (Ray Liotta, GOODFELLAS, HANNIBAL) inconveniently enters the conundrum, the story evolves into a tale of revenge and survival that resolves in true Texas fashion: bold and ruthless.

Head on over HERE to pre-order this naughty number; it hits on AUGUST 14th.
