Intense ‘Meander’ Trailer Mixes ‘Cube’ & ‘Saw’, and Is Nightmarishly Claustrophobic! [Video]

Published

Hostile director Mathieu Turi is back with a new sci-fi thriller that looks absolutely bonkers.

In Meander, a woman (Gaia Weiss; “Vikings”) wakes up in a strange tube full of deadly traps. Her only option is to keep moving forward. But it is not clear how far she can get.

The first international trailer is here and it’s intense and nightmarishly claustrophobic, looking like a perfect blend of Vincenzo Natali’s sci-fi horror Cube and James Wan’s nasty torture film, Saw. It’s colorful, nasty, and filled with traps, not to mention creatures?

Written and directed by Turi, Variety has previously reported that the English-language film also stars Peter Franzen as a man whose “intentions are mysterious.” From the looks of it, he’s been trapped in this maze for a long, long time.

Thanks to Fabien M. for sending.

“You wake up.
You wear a futuristic suit.
You are stuck in an endless metal maze.
Every 8 minutes, you need to move forward or die.
The only reason to know why is to survive every death trap on your way.”

A hugely exciting new project from visionary director Panos Cosmatos (Mandy) has been announced by Variety, with Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac starring in Flesh of the Gods.

The cherry on top? Andrew Kevin Walker (Se7en, The Killer) wrote the screenplay!

Variety details the storyline, “Flesh of the Gods is set in glittering ’80s L.A., where married couple Raoul (Oscar Isaac) and Alex (Kristen Stewart) each evening descend from their luxury skyscraper condo and head into the city’s electric nighttime realm.

“When they cross paths with a mysterious and enigmatic figure known as Nameless and her hard-partying cabal, the pair are seduced into a glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills and violence.”

“Like Los Angeles itself, Flesh of the Gods inhabits the liminal realm between fantasy and nightmare,” Panos Cosmatos said in a statement today. “Both propulsive and hypnotic, Flesh will take you on a hot rod joy ride deep into the glittering heart of hell.”

Producer Adam McKay adds, “This director, this writer, these incredible actors, vampires, choice ’80s punk, style and attitude for miles… that’s the film we’re bringing you today. We think it’s wildly commercial and wildly artful. Our ambitions are to make a movie that ripples through popular culture, fashion, music and film. Can you tell how excited I am?”

The project is launching in Cannes with WME Independent, CAA Media Finance and XYZ Films.
