A Field In England (2013)

Starring: Michael Smiley, Reece Shearsmith, Richard Glover, Julian Barratt, Peter Ferdinando
Director: Ben Wheatley

Premise:
During Civil War in 17th century England, a group of deserters are captured by an alchemist and forced to search for buried treasure in a mysterious field.

My Take:
Ben Wheatley continues to be one of the most interesting directors making off beat horror flicks. This movie is a true mind melt with it's story and editing technique. It will require another viewing on my part and even then, there is lots left up to the viewer to decide.

Rating: So Good
