Screen Adventure - by ShaunK

brand new trailer for VALHALLA RISING - a film by Nicolas Winding Refn

Valhalla Rising
Valhalla Rising - watch out! It's almost here!


Nicolas Winding Refn, the acclaimed director of BRONSON, FEAR X, BLEEDER and PUSHER 1, 2 and 3, strikes again with his bone-crushingly brutal Viking epic starring Mads Mikkelsen (CASINO ROYALE, FLAME & CITRON). This stylized knockout premiered to acclaim at the Venice and Toronto Film Festivals and should become a cult classic.

An epic tale of war, vengeance and redemption, VALHALLA RISING looks to be a provocative collision of art, action and just maybe also, a bloody awesome film.

For years, One-Eye, a mute warrior of supernatural strength, has been held prisoner – forced to fight for his life and the amusement of his pagan slavers. Aided by a boy, he finds his moment, furiously kills his captors and together they escape, beginning an odyssey through an unknown land. After falling in with a band of Vikings, One-Eye and his young companion find they must confront terrible fate in the quest for their freedom.

Sounds promising, so far there has been a mixed reception on the festival circuit in comparison to his previous film, especially the hugely praised Bronson, but either way - I love Mads, and Refn, has so far, proved to be a director that cant do any wrong!

It's out mid July!

Yeah!!

Enjoy the trailer! It looks like one hell of fight goes down in this!

Hi Shaun,

The Directors batting average is pretty impressive and this looks like a treat...my expectations have risen to Valhalla


No mention of Wonder Woman?

Refn can do no wrong with me either. After his appearance and talk at MIFF last year alongside Bronson, I wonder if Valhalla will turn up at this year's festival? Would be nice if they could fly him in again too!

Sounds like every man's dream, Shaun, they just love all that fire and thunder and blood curdling thrill.
