In a Valley of Violence [Movie Trailer]

In a Valley of Violence is the latest movie from writer/director Ti West. He previously wrote and directed my favorite horror movie, House of The Devil. That movie's my favorite because it never relied on jumps and random sounds to scare the audience. No, it was a slow-tension-building film that played on your fear of uncertainty and the unknown to frighten you.

In a Valley of Violence is a straight up western revenge flick staring Ethan Hawke and John Travolta, and by the looks of it, it should be pretty damn entertaining. Also, it features Ziggy from The Wire. Peep the official synopsis below and check out In a Valley of Violence in theaters, on demand and on digital HD October 21st.

A mysterious drifter named Paul and his dog Abbie make their way towards Mexico through the barren desert of the old west. In an attempt to shorten their journey they cut through the center of a large valley, landing themselves in the forgotten town of Denton, a place now dubbed by locals as a “valley of violence.” The once popular mining town is nearly abandoned, and is controlled by a brash group of misfits and nitwits—chief among them the seemingly untouchable Gilly, who is the troublemaking son of the town’s unforgiving Marshal. As tensions rise between Paul and Gilly, Denton’s remaining residents bear witness to an inevitable act of violence that starts a disastrous chain reaction, infecting the petty lives of all involved and quickly dragging the whole town into the bloody crosshairs of revenge.
