Chilling First Trailer for Sundance Selection ‘The East’ with Ellen Page and Alexander Skarsgard

Zal Batmanglij’s previous collaboration with Brit Marling, ‘Sound of my Voice’, may have tackled similar themes of underground cults and movements, but their new film, The East, looks to be an altogether more powerful watch. Premiering at Sundance to good reviews, the first teaser for the movie has no surfaced online. We might have to wait for a full trailer before we learn any specific details, but this teaser certainly piques our interest.

Starring Ellen Page, Alexander Skarsgard and Patricia Clarkson as members of the titular anarchist society, we can expect the film to hit theatres in late 2013.
