The Russian sci-fi horror film SPUTNIK has just unleashed a new and exciting trailer, with Arrow-in-the-Head's own Lance Vlcek getting quoted in said trailer, calling the film "excellent, gory, nail-biting". Awesome!
Meanwhile, you can watch the trailer at the top of the article, and read the official synopsis below:
Due to her controversial methods, young doctor Tatiana Yurievna (Oksana Akinshina, LILYA 4-EVER) is on the precipice of losing her medical license. Her career may not be over, though. After she’s recruited by the military, Tatiana is brought to a secure science research facility to assess a very special case, that of Konstantin Sergeyevich (Pyotr Fyodorov, THE DARKEST HOUR), a cosmonaut who survived a mysterious space accident and has returned to Earth with a unique condition: there’s something living inside of him that only shows itself late at night. The military has nefarious plans for it. Tatiana wants to stop it from killing Konstantin. And the creature itself thrives on destruction.
I've said before that I'm a sucker for sci-fi horror, especially creature features involving aliens (even cheesy ones like GALAXY OF TERROR and SPECIES), so I'm already all in on SPUTNIK. Hopefully it delivers on what the trailer is promising!
SPUTNIK – directed by Egor Abramenko and starring Oksana Akinshina, Fedor Bondarchuk, and Pyotr Fyodorov – will be unleashed onto theaters, digital, and On Demand August 14th!
