International Poster for ‘The Horsemen’

Above you see the international poster for ‘The Horsemen’, the new thriller by Swedish filmmaker Jonas Akerlund. Â  For a point of reference on the director, he’s the guy who directed the controversial music video for The Prodigy’s “Smack My Bitch Up”. Â  He also directed the underrated, drug movie ‘Spun’ in 2002.

‘The Horsemen’ follows Dennis Quaid as a  recently widowed detective still grieving over his wife’s death.   He  discovers a shocking connection between himself and the suspects in a serial killing spree linked to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

That poster is pretty damned creepy. Â  I’m sure the MPAA will never let anything like that get a release in the states.

What do you think? Â  Does the film sound intriguing to you? Â  Does it sound a little too much like ‘Seven’? Â  Whatever happened to The Prodigy? Â  Let us know by commenting below!
