Drafthouse Films recently acquired Ben Wheatley's A Field in England and they'll be releasing the movie to theaters and VOD on February 7th. If you'd like to learn more, we've been provided with a new set of photos and a look at a new poster.
"During the Civil War in 17th-Century England, a small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field. They are captured by an alchemist (Michael Smiley), who 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 is a psychedelic trip into magic and madness from Ben Wheatley, the award-winning director of Down Terrace, Kill List and Sightseers."
Directed by Ben Wheatley, A Field in England stars Michael Smiley, Julian Barratt, Reece Shearsmith, Richard Glover, and Peter Ferdinando. We'll have an exclusive interview with Ben Wheatley next week and you can check out our early review of A Field in England at:
