New "Machinist" Pics, Cast News
FilmMax International has posted new photos and artwork for their c "The Machinist". It looks to be more of a thriller than a horror flick, but the plot sounds like it has potential:
" Trevor Reznik, a machinist, has lost the ability to sleep. But this is no ordinary insomnia. Trevor has not slept in a year. Fatigue has led to a shocking deterioration of his physical and mental health. Suspicious of his appearance, Trevor's co-workers first shy away from him, then turn against him after he's involved in a shop accident that costs a man his arm. They blame Trevor for the accident. He has become a liability to himself and others, and now they want him out.
Plagued with guilt, Trevor's shame becomes suspicion, then paranoia, when it appears his workmates are conspiring to have him fired -- or worse. First he finds cryptic notes left in his apartment. Next he's told that a mysterious co-worker involved in the accident doesn't exist."
"The Machinist" stars Christian Bale and Jennifer Jason Leigh. The wonderful Michael Ironside is also in the movie, and looks as eerie and intimidating in the publicity pics as Bale looks worn and beaten. Photos and info can be found at the Filmax site.
