Original title (FR): Le Salaire de la peur

In a squalid South American oil town, four desperate men sign on for a suicide mission to drive trucks loaded with nitroglycerin over a treacherous mountain route. As they ferry their explosive cargo to a faraway oil fire, each bump and jolt tests their courage, their friendship, and their nerves. The result is one of the greatest thrillers ever committed to celluloid, a white-knuckle ride from France’s legendary master of suspense, Henri-Georges Clouzot. New 4K restoration opening exclusively in theaters 11/27!

Inspiration for the criminally underrated 1977 US version, Sorcerer, which had the terrible misfortune of opening the exact same weekend as this one weird low-budget sci-fi cowboy movie.

Was a good movie. Had lots of machismo. Also sweaty Mexican dudes in ribbed tank tops*

*They're called wife beaters, or were in the 90's in bumfuk America when I learned about them anyway. Not sure if that's pc anymore. Life partner beaters?

You got it right the first time: ribbed tanks; still bringing the machismo and big trans-masc energy. :)

This is a community for posting and sharing trailers and teasers for upcoming film, television and video game premieres. The goal is to provide subscribers a curated feed of trailers for UPCOMING media. General-purpose posts about movies, television and games are better suited for other communities around the Lemmyverse. This place is just for trailers.

Rules

  1. All posts must be trailers or teasers; not full movies, not trailers for trailers, and not clips of popular scenes. Meta posts from mod staff are OK, but should be kept to a minimum.
  2. No fan-made trailers or remixes.
  3. Trailers for upcoming content only. Do not spam the community with trailers for media that has already been released.
  4. Link to official channels for trailers whenever possible (ie: the YouTube accounts of each film's studio or distribution company); avoid linking to videos from media outlets that function as aggregators / re-posters if you can.
  5. Post titles should follow formatting guidelines: "Media Name (release year, relevant creator credit)". Creator credits should be directors for films and games, showrunners for television series. Other details such as starring actors, writers, production studios, etc can be added to the post description.
  6. Don't be a jerk.
