We’ve been talking about Patrick Lussier’s latest 3D carnage fest, Drive Angry, for quite some time now, and finally the first behind-the-scenes image has arrived from the set.

Over on writer Todd Farmer’s Facebook page, he posted a picture of the king of horror cool, Tom Atkins, talking shop between takes. While this isn’t exactly a jump out of your seat moment as far as stills go, it still offers us our first look at Atkins in the flick AND … It’s TOM FUCKING ATKINS, and that’s enough to Thrill Me!

Drive Angry, co-written by Lussier and Farmer, centers on a man (Nicolas Cage) driven by rage who is chasing the people who killed his daughter and kidnapped her baby. The vendetta/rescue spins out of control as the chase gets bloodier by the mile, leaving bodies strewn along the highway. Amen.

Look for more on this one as soon as we get it!
