A Scene From Peter Burger's The Tatooist

We've been tracking the development of Peter Burger's supernatural thriller The Tatooist for quite some time now, initially because of the involvement of Black Sheep director Jonathan King as the scriptwriter, in later days because it simply looks pretty damn good. The film explores Samoan spiritual beliefs around tattooing and stars Roswell's Jason Behr as an American tattoo artist caught up in a situation spiralling out of control when a Samoan artist's work unleashes a powerful spirit. The trailers hit a while back - you'll find links here - and now New Zealand film blog Black Magic has an extended scene to share.
