I love a good sci-fi movie shrouded in mystery...
(from Fangoria)
This week sees the beginning of the 2010 edition of South by Southwest, the music and film celebration that aims to introduce the world to new cinematic talent. One of them is Gareth Edwards, whose movie MONSTERS is among the five SX Fantastic genre features being presented at the event by Fantastic Fest. Fango spoke to the visual FX artist turned writer/director as he awaits MONSTERS’ SXSW world premiere this Saturday, March 13. This little film is shrouded in quite a bit of mystery. Currently there’s not much out there promoting MONSTERS, including a couple of stills (including the exclusive one below) and a synopsis that tells of a future five years from now where an extraterrestrial presence has infiltrated Central America, leaving half of Mexico quarantined and redubbed the Infected Zone. The movie follows an American journalist (Scoot McNairy) escorting a tourist (UNEARTHED’s Whitney Able) through the hostile, creature-ridden territory in a bid to reach the safety of the U.S. border.
