Murderous glances at The Raven with John Cusack

The Raven with John Cusack

The first press screenings in the U.S. The Raven has already passed. We have not even seen the film, which is why we are content for now with a new clip. In which we can observe a murder (almost).

In The Raven John Cusack plays the famous gothic author Edgar Allan Poe and has to explain dark backdrop murders. A trailer you could look at you already, but then it was quiet for the time. Now this is different because the first screening of The Raven ran in the United States. For us it will take, but in the U.S., the film is already starting this week. No wonder that they now cut out a new clip. The clip shows - or rather does not - one of the killings, the Baltimore-19th Century plague. Looks in for a little Edgar Allen Poe - atmosphere.

In The Raven is about said series of murders in Baltimore.Detective Emmett Fields (Luke Evans) notice about this, that every murder is matched exactly to the gruesome story of a local writer: Edgar Allen Poe (John Cusack). First, the prime suspect, is quite Poe relieved quickly, because during his trial takes place, another, also ajar to his murder stories. Poe must now help the police to anticipate the next steps of the serial killer. Time is short, because it certainly looks as though it apart the culprit now on Poe's beloved Emily Hamilton (Alice Eve). Use on your own needs Poe's detective skills honed with his stories, to stop the psychopath.

In the clip we see probably one of the first big murder this psychopath. The moon is clear and cold through the dark, almost colorless night. A scream cuts through the silence and the police hurried to the scene, which concludes the culprit in the last minute.The police broke open the door to see just hang around the arm of the victim from the fire. This is taken directly from the story The Murders in the Rue Morgue, where a mother's throat is cut and his daughter abruptly ends as a chimney blockage. Judging from the atmosphere to the film by James McTeigue will be very melancholy, but ultimately give the dynamic thriller and detective aspect of the privilege. A Sherlock Holmes hunted in the dark in Baltimore?

The first reviews were not very sympathetic, and currently certifies Rotten Tomatoes an average rating of 02/04/10 points. Often is actually a poor imitation of Poe, Sherlock Holmes-coating the speech, although the premise is highlighted in itself often positive.Even the reviews are not particularly numerous, so the tone might change. For us, the film starts on 13 September in the cinemas.
