Gillian Anderson is a ‘Straw Dog’ in ‘Straightheads’ trailer
‘Straightheads’ is the new thriller from director Dan Reed, and looks like it could be pretty good. He’s got Gillian Anderson on-board and pairs her with Danny Dyer (who surprised me recently in ‘Severance’). The plot seems to borrow heavily from ‘They call her one eye’ and ‘Straw Dogs’ but there’s always room for another bloody revenge movie.

This film looks sick and not in a good way.
What a piece of crap, heard it went straight to video in some places already. Don’t expect it to get off the ground much at all, hell it’s already a flop and it hasn’t even seen a world wide release yet. My guess is it won’t, none of the film festivals wanted it and no one else will either.
It hasn’t been released anywhere yet so how can it have gone “straight to video in some places already”? Methinks you don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s been picked up by Sony and their distribution decisions will be made after its UK cinema release. This is what happens to small independent movies.
Equally, since it hasn’t yet been released or critiqued, it can neither be considered a success or a flop.
I think the film looks excellent and I’m looking forward to seeing it.
