The Naomi Watt’s “Funny Games” Movie Trailer Is Warped!

by Keith

This harsh, twisted movie trailer screened before the remarkable “Sweeney Todd” (which I will be reviewing here soon) reminds me a lot of “A Clockwork Orange”. Here is the Wikipedia synpopsis for the adult thriller “Funny Games” starring Tim Roth and Naomi Watt’s below:

“Funny Games” is the American remake of the 1997 Austrian thriller of the same name. Original writer/director Michael Haneke (Caché and La Pianiste) wrote and directed, and British actress Naomi Watts plays role of Anne originally played by Susanne Lothar and Tim Roth plays George. Devon Gearhart plays the role of their son, Georgie.

The two malevolent young men are played by Brady Corbet and Michael Pitt. The projected American release date is scheduled by Warner Independent for February 15, 2008. It premieres at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. The film is an exact shot-for-shot remake of its predecessor.
