The first intense trailer for director David M. Rosenthal’s A SINGLE SHOT had the same distinct atmospheric tone as Sam Raimi’s under-appreciated thriller A SIMPLE PLAN. Two titles even sound like they belong together. The film is an adaptation of the same-titled novel by Matthew F. Jones (who also wrote the screenplay) with an impressive cast led by the ever-excellent Sam Rockwell. He’s a desperate John Moon. A man struggling with the loss of his family farm and losing himself in the wilderness of his hobby as hunter and poacher. That is until he trespasses on the wrong land and mistakenly fires a fateful shot that changes his world forever.
The film is set to be made available in the US on VOD from 20th August, followed by a limited US theatre run from 20th September. No details yet on a UK release. It also features William H Macy, Melissa Leo, Jason Isaacs, Jeffrey Wright and here we have a collection of new character posters.

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
