Here’s the trailer for Jerzy Skolimowski’s upcoming film Essential Killings, starring Vincent Gallo (The Brown Bunny, Tetro) as a Taliban member who’s captured after taking the lives of three American soldiers. He soon escapes captivity and goes on the lam in Europe. [The Playlist]

In a word: whoa. And who better to play a controversial terrorist hero than Gallo?

Check out the trailer below:

This trailer does pretty much everything right, from the pacing to the music. That said, Gallo’s always been hit-or-miss as an actor. His performance in Tetro pretty much wanes from hit to miss throughout. This is certainly a juicy role to tackle. More new forthcoming on release dates, festival plays and so forth.
