First Images From Christopher Smith's Severance

Oooh ... big thanks to Phil for passing this along ...

The first stills for Christopher Smith's Severance have turned up online and while there's nothing in there I'd call a money shot they're looking mighty nice. Severance is the sophomore feature from Smith who generated a lot of attention with Creep a couple years back, a film that genrated a mixed response but which I thought was an awful lot of fun.

For his latest Smith sends a group of arms dealers into the mountains of Eastern Europe for a corporate retreat and then sets a group of crazed ex soldiers on them. The film is screening at the Cannes market and word from that front is that it is very good, very bloody, and very funny. Expect to see it on the festival circuit soon.
