Brandon Cronenberg’s Horror Film Infinity Pool Gets Trailer

I ought to have recognized instantly Infinity Pool, the upcoming movie by David Cronenberg’s son Brandon, wasn’t going to be a easy thriller. He’s directed the sci-fi horror flicks Possessor and Antiviral, so what appears at first to be a easy story of a privileged white man who travels to a international nation, hits somebody together with his automotive, after which faces the demise penalty was going to have extra happening. But guys? It’s a lot extra.

I extremely advocate you watch the trailer earlier than studying the official abstract, which I’ll put after the video, for its weirdness to have most impact:

“While staying at an isolated island resort, James (Alexander Skarsgård) and Em (Cleopatra Coleman) are enjoying a perfect vacation of pristine beaches, exceptional staff, and soaking up the sun. But guided by the seductive and mysterious Gabi (Mia Goth), they venture outside the resort grounds and find themselves in a culture filled with violence, hedonism, and untold horror. A tragic accident leaves them facing a zero-tolerance policy for crime: either you’ll be executed, or, if you’re rich enough to afford it, you can watch yourself die instead.”

That explains the additional Skarsgård within the tub of goo, however doesn’t even scratch the floor of the masks, the bondage, and all the opposite insanity proven within the trailer. If you wish to have an opportunity of understanding it, mark your calendars for January 27 when Infinity Pool premieres in theaters.
