NSFW Red band trailer for Jonathan Leder’s American Ecstasy is arty, disturbing

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Photographer Jonathan Leder makes his directorial debut with the anthology-styled AMERICAN ECSTASY, and today we have the very NSFW Red Band trailer for you to peep.

Filled with nudity and violence (exactly the kind of stuff we like around here!), this arty but disturbing trailer will make you feel dirty and plenty uncomfortable (also just the way we like it!) with its hypnotic imagery, its unique and provacative feel, and its haunting music. It’s filthy to the point that you may feel like taking a shower afterwards. Now why aren’t more trailers like this?

Described as a mix between V/H/S and CREEPSHOW, Leder’s AMERICAN ECSTASY has an intriguing synopsis, which you can read below:

They come from the middle of nowhere. They flee fine families and broken homes in search of experience and dreams. They travel the same interstates and back roads as we do. Trigger the same bells entering 24-hour convenience stores. Veer off at the same rest stops headed for places like the Adirondacks, Woodstock, Myrtle Beach and Tampa. And then they vanish. In the wake they leave trails run cold, memories of fresh faces and promising smiles later recalled by strange passersby. These young women are now heroines of the AMERICAN ECSTASY, the new feature-length chiller from celebrated photographer and filmmaker Jonathan Leder. An anthology film exploring tales of resilient women snared in a single terrifying, hallucinatory nightmare, fates left gasping in the gloved hands of a mad everyman, this is the movie that will prove, once and for all, that the most monstrous of highway predators is America itself.”
