UK ‘The Voices’ Trailer Talks Ryan Reynolds Into Murder

Published

on

While Lionsgate will hear The Voices (review), a genre film starring Amityville Horror‘s Ryan Reynolds, on VOD platforms and in limited theaters February 6, Arrow Films will release in the UK on March 20.

We now have a UK trailer for the horror film directed by Marjane Satrapi, and also starring Gemma Arterton, Anna Kendrick and Jacki Weaver.

My personal thoughts on the horror comedy is that it reminds me of the old Lionsgate days, meaning that it’s a film destined for home video, and that it’s a good Friday night “what should we watch?” kind of film. It’s neither good nor bad, but will ultimately fill a bland evening without regrets.

‘The Voices’ centers around Jerry Hickfang (Reynolds), a lovable but disturbed factory worker who yearns for attention from a woman in accounting. When their relationship takes a sudden, murderous turn, Jerry’s evil talking cat and benevolent talking dog lead him down a fantastical path where he ultimately finds salvation.
