David Sakurai (Through the Darkness) just handed us the firt trailer for a new Danish (but English language) post-apocalyptic actioner he's starring in called Eastern Army. And honestly, it looks pretty great. Maurauding cannibals, some great costumes, a dusty setting and fantastic photography make this look like a winner.
Eastern Army premiered in Copenhagen, Denmark April 9 at the 'Movie Battle Film Festival' where it recieved "The Audience Award" and a "Best Actor Award" for the lead David Sakurai. Next, the film will tour fests in North America and around Europe.
