If you read my work at my other writing haunt, Horror Squad, then you know how ridiculously obsessed I am over giallo film. The new trailer for the French, giallo-esque thriller, Amer, looks incredible and I’m chomping at the bit to see more. The new trailer for the film has a black-gloved hand, shrouded figures, a wicked looking blade and that familiar giallo jingle–all making my toes curl. If it’s possible to wanna make out with a movie, then I’m alllll over Amer. Mmmeow!
You can check out the trailer for the film below which look as sexy and stylish as the teaser clip I posted in early December. Here’s a new synopsis for the film which is super horny.
Desire has always been linked to one’s look. And cinema too. Luis Buñuel knew that very well when he filmed the short of a razor over an eye with a detail shot. Hélène Cattet and Bruno Forzani recover this image in an experimental film with immaculate style. Someone watches a girl through a keyhole. The wind lightly lifts a woman’s skirt as a group of men look on. The fantasy of a dress tearing. Composed of fragments -of eyes, lights, shadows, gestures– and without dialogues, Amer delves into the life of Ana, always halfway between the real and the imaginary. A film of sensations, always shot skin-deep.
Amer has already opened to French audiences, with 5 international awards under its belt so far. I’m still searching for US release info, so as soon as I get word you will know. Trailer time…
