We've been excited for Daily Dead readers to see Villains since Heather Wixson gave it a 4.5 star review at SXSW, and after acquiring US rights to the dark comedy, Gunpowder & Sky will release Villains in theaters on September 20th. We now have a look at the official trailer and poster.

Written and directed by Dan Berk & Robert Olsen, Villains stars Bill Skarsgård, Maika Monroe, Jeffrey Donovan, and Kyra Sedgwick.

Synopsis: "Mickey and Jules are lovers on the run, headed southbound for a fresh start in the Sunshine State. When their car dies after a gas station robbery, they break into a nearby house looking for a new set of wheels. What they find instead is a dark secret and a sweet-as-pie pair of homeowners who will do anything to keep it from getting out."
