Drafthouse Films Releases a New Trailer for BORGMAN

Drafthouse Films released a new trailer for their upcoming U.S. release of the creepy thriller Borgman, which happens to be an absolute must-see.  One thing I noticed about the trailer is that it doesn’t really showcase the comedic aspects of this film, and presents it like a straight thriller, which it isn’t.  There’s plenty of absurd dark humor in this movie, and fans of films like Dogtooth will feel right at home.  Click here to check out our review on the Film Pulse Podcast.

Borgman is directed by Alex van Warmerdam and is set for select theaters June 6th.  Hit the break to check out the new trailer and synopsis.

A dark suburban fable exploring the nature of evil in unexpected places, Borgman follows an enigmatic vagrant who enters the lives of an upper-class family and quickly unravels their carefully curated lifestyle. Charming and mysterious, Camiel Borgman seems almost otherworldly, and it isn’t long before he has the wife, children and nanny under his spell in a calculated bid to take over their home life. However, his domestic assimilation takes a malevolent turn as his ultimate plan comes to bear, igniting a series of increasingly maddening and menacing events.
