SXSW 2013: ‘Scenic Route’ Poster With Josh Duhamel

Here’s the newly released poster for the upcoming thriller Scenic Route starring Josh Duhamel and Dan Fogler, and directed by Kevin and Michael Goetz. The film was scripted by Kyle Killen (The Beaver) and focuses on two friends whose relationship deteriorates rapidly after becoming stranded along a desert road while on a trip.

Scenic Route is having its world premier March 8th at SXSW, but there’s no word yet on US distribution.  Hit the jump for the poster and synopsis, thanks to indiewire for releasing the poster.

Mitchell (Josh Duhamel) and Carter (Dan Fogler), life-long friends who have drifted apart, are on a road trip when their old pickup breaks down, leaving them stranded on an isolated desert road. Nobody can pick apart a man like his best friend, and as the relentless elements of the desert grind them down, they start to attack each other’s life decisions with unwavering brutality. As they question who they are and who they could have been, their agitation leads to physical confrontation and ultimately knife-wielding madness, and what begins as an inconvenience becomes a very real life or death struggle.
