A new trailer has emerged for the upcoming English language remake of the Mexican cannibal film We Are What We Are (2010). Directed by Jim Mickle (Stakeland) starring Ambyr Childers (The Master), Odeya Rush and Bill Sage (American Psycho) and following the same "cannibal family" dynamic. However the film seems to place a Gothic twist on the tale perhaps in the vein of Let Me In (2010) or Stoker (2013), if the film is anything like those movies then we should be in for a treat but I'm not sold on the translation from the Mexican setting or director Jim Mickle (Stakeland was a disaster).
What do you think of the trailer? How do you think the film will translate to western audiences?
The original wasn't a bad movie at all, I just found it to be kinda boring and not so willing to really go that far out there with the story it presented. Remake looks like it'll be pretty good, kind of a slow, disturbing type of movie. And I usually like that stuff so I'll probably be watching it.
ReplyDeleteI agree, the original showed promise but failed live up to a lot of the hype surrounding it at the time. Who know maybe this one will make it into my superior remakes feature...
