A Field In England Trailer – Plus a new poster for Ben Wheatley’s unusual flick

There’s been a lot of interest in A Field In England, the latest movie from Kill List and Sightseers director Ben Wheatley. Now we can get our first taste of the black and white film with a trailer and poster. It’s getting an unusual UK release, as it’ll be the first ever British film released simultaneously in cinemas, on DVD, on free TV (Film 4) and on VoD on Friday 5th July.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘England during the Civil War.

‘A small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field. They are captured by two men: O’Neil and Cutler. O’Neil (Michael Smiley), an alchemist, forces the group to aid him in his search to find a hidden treasure that he believes is buried in the field.

‘Crossing a vast mushroom circle, which provides their first meal, the group quickly descend into a chaos of arguments, fighting and paranoia, and, as it becomes clear that the treasure might be something other than gold, they slowly become victim to the terrifying energies trapped inside the field.

‘A Field in England stars Michael Smiley (Kill List), Peter Ferdinando (Tony), Reece Shearsmith (The League of Gentlemen), Julian Barratt (The Mighty Boosh), Richard Glover (Sightseers) and Ryan Pope (Ideal).’
