Yes, you read the title correctly.
We won't even keep you waiting for very long to check out this week's release (for August 19th) and trailer. To be fair, this filmed was released late last year in Spain first and it's finally making it's way over the Atlantic and here to our theaters, albeit to limited release.
The latest film from cult director Alex de la Iglesia , (El Dia de la Bestia, The Oxford Murders) who's work, for some, is reminiscent of early Peter Jackson films and twisted in that Benicio del Toro sort of way. The Last Circus, is, to be fair, a fucked up sprawling downward spiral of sex, clowns, murder, violence, comedy and Spaniards. In essence, one of those type of films that begs to be seen and talked about among other film buffs.
The imagery from the trailer already seems magical and menacing all at once, the type of stuff reserved for Rob Zombie films but with a real sense of art and less of the grit perhaps Americans are used to.
Nonetheless, the film looks insane and worth checking out. So, without further adieu, ladies and gentlemen...the Last Circus.
