Trailer: THE INFORMERS

From the author of American Psycho & the director of Buffalo Soldiers.

by Matt Holmes

From Brett Easton Ellis, the wonderfully vicious satirical author of American Psycho and The Rules of Attraction comes The Informers - the third adapted work from his back catalogue but THE FIRST he has played a hand in scripting for screen The talented Gregor Jordan who helmed both Buffalo Soldiers and Ned Kelly - two under appreciated and underperformed movies deserves a much needed break with his third pic.

The seductive Amber Heard, Winona Ryder, Mickey Rourke, Kim Basinger, Billy Bob Thornton, Rhys Ifans and Brad Renfro (in his last picture since his untimely death at 25 in January) star. Like all of Ellis' work, the material looks/feels sexy, deals with narcissistic and unlikeable characters and looks completely different to what anyone else is giving us today. I've liked both Ellis' work on screen so far, I would love to see a knock-out third here.

We await a HD transfer of the trailer, probably because we don't quite know where or when it will be premiering. Possibly at the Toronto Film Festival?
