Soaring into theaters April 27th is THE RAVEN, John McTeigue’s period-set chiller starring John Cusack as Edgar Allan Poe. With a couple of months out, a new TV spot for the film has premiered, which you can scope out below. The most impressive thing about it? The reinforcement that the picture will be rated-R. Damn, this could actually be a decent flick!
Also featuring the likes of Alice Eve (below), Luke Evans, Brendan Gleeson, Dave Legeno, Oliver Jackson-Cohen and Pam Ferris:
The macabre and lurid tales of Edgar Allan Poe are vividly brought to life – and death – in this stylish, gothic thriller starring John Cusack as the infamous author. When a madman begins committing horrific murders inspired by Poe’s darkest works, a young Baltimore detective (Luke Evans) joins forces with Poe in a quest to get inside the killer’s mind in order to stop him from making every one of Poe’s brutal stories a blood chilling reality. A deadly game of cat and mouse ensues, which escalates when Poe’s love (Alice Eve, She’s Out of My League) becomes the next target. Intrepid Pictures’ The Raven also stars Brendan Gleeson (In Bruges) and Oliver Jackson-Cohen (Faster).
