Green Room – Special Edition Release News
The brand-new Limited Edition release of Green Room will be music to your fears, as Second Sight Films gives acclaimed director Jeremy Saulnier’s (Blue Ruin) hit horror the physical release it deserves on 18 March 2024, standard editions will also be available.
In a masterclass in casting, national treasure Patrick Stewart gives an outstandingly terrifying turn as a sadistic neo-Nazi and stars alongside stellar cast, the late Anton Yelchin (Star Trek, Hearts in Atlanta), Imogen Poots (Vivarium, 28 Weeks Later) Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development, Whip It), Joe Cole (Peaky Blinders, Skins) and Callum Turner (War & Peace, Victor Frankenstein), who all give unwavering performances. This, accompanied by a stomping soundtrack and a bucket load of bloody violence makes for ‘A debilitating, white-knuckled thrill fest’ says Starburst Magazine.
Struggling punk band Ain’t Rights are in the Pacific Northwest for a gig, but when it’s cancelled, Pat, Sam, Reece and Tiger must find another way of making the money that they desperately need. When an opportunity for a show in the sticks arises, they can’t say no… but what the hell have they walked into?
The venue turns out to be a neo-Nazi bar… and when the band witness a brutal murder, things quickly spiral out of control and they find themselves trapped in the green room, with little chance of escape… Forced to fight for survival using anything and everything at their disposal, can they make it out alive?
Reviews
‘A gruelling, gutsy suspense ride… gore cuts deep… Patrick Stewart brings an almost Shakespearean edge to the drama… drew gasps from the audience – myself included’
★★★★★
Mark Kermode, The Observer
‘Jeremy Saulnier is among the most inventive, versatile filmmakers working in low-budget, indie genre movies… a riotous, rough-hewn and rousing punk reinvention of ’70s-style grindhouse exploitation-with-a-brain-cinema’
★★★★
‘The gore is great… how can you resist a film that, metaphorically, throws Simon & Garfunkel, Fugazi and Slayer into the same moshpit? Fast and funny, the whole thing’s a bit of a scrum. Dive in and feel the noise’
Evening Standard
‘The real deal: a ferocious siege movie that cuts straight to the bone…’
