This is awesome! Our friends at Ain't It Cool News just unveiled a new poster for Ryan Reynolds' upcoming buried alive thriller Buried, directed by Spanish filmmaker Rodrigo Cortés (who I'm planning to interview in Toronto). This poster takes that stunning, twisty Saul Bass-like design that we originally saw made out of white lines and inputs some quotes (including one from yours truly at FirstShowing.net via this review) for the movie. I hope this helps build even more buzz because I loved Buried, it's still one of my favorites of this year, and I hope a lot of people go see it. Anyway, without further ado, check out the new poster for Buried!
If you haven't seen a trailer yet, you should watch the full theatrical one or the much creepier teaser trailer.
A U.S. contractor working in Iraq awakes to find he is buried alive inside a coffin. With only a lighter and a cell phone it's a race against time to escape this claustrophobic death trap. Buried is directed by Spanish filmmaker Rodrigo Cortés, of the films 15 Days, The Contestant, and Dirt Devil previously. The screenplay was written by first-time writer Chris Sparling. This was one of my favorite films from Sundance (read my review) and I can't wait for everyone to be able to experience it! Buried hits ALL theaters on October 8th.

Okay, he's buried and no one would like to experience it; now all together every one: Oooh, ahhhh ! ...Yaaawwnnn ....Unless he escapes the way the Bride did, it seems like it's just going to be 2010's over rated critcs Oscar darling to me .... Pass.

Have you seen it Xerxex or are you just getting caught up in the pre hype the way everyone did with Avatar?

Have you seen it Sam Shadey or are you just getting caught up in the pre anti-hype the way everyone did with Avatar?

Sam Shadey I happened upon the script and I was thoroughly impressed with the plot, it was heartbreaking, and a excellent thriller. p.s. I wasn't caught up in the Avatar hype, I learned my lesson after The Dark Knight, and I was glad I didn't Avatar wasn't that good.

Xerxex, I'll take you word on it and wait until the first weekend of release is over before deciding. I usually wait to hear/read what other ordinary 'paying' movie fans say about a movie rather than star struck critics who get complimentary tickets from studios to review their movies.

@ 18 : Eff that, spend money first, seek reviews later. That's how america does it. What were you planning to do with that $10($11/$12/$15/$75, dunno where you live, last one could be the moon)? Buy a house? I THINK NOT! MOVIE TIIIIME! @ Topic : I have been in the hype since it was first announced. Not because of reviews, but purely because it was put onto firstshowing.net, I follow like a sheep in heat (assuming that the heating would in fact improve the sheeps following abilities..). No no, I kid I kid... I love the concept and love Ryan Reynolds (mostly because he always makes me think of Dane Cook jokes.. tehe.) (([{does anybody else enjoy my "mis"use of parentheses?)]}

OoOoOoOoO... I suppose you guys are going to let all this fame go to your heads, and pretty soon you'll be dismissive and unapproachable! Seriously, you earned it. Way to go!

@Sam Shadey I'll be sure to let you know I thought of it. @Hedgehog nice miss-uses of parentheses!
