A bit more news has come in for Ben Wheatley’s latest film, Sightseers. A website has been set up that’s home to the first bit of eye candy and plot details. Of course we have them here for you. Dig it!
Actors Alice Lowe and Steve Oram wrote the script with additional material from Amy Jump. StudioCanal will distribute in the UK, and Protagonist Pictures handles international sales.
Katherine Butler, Film4 Senior Commissioning Executive, called the film “hilariously twisted” while Lizzie Francke, Senior Production Executive at BFI Film Fund, added: “‘Sightseers’ takes us on a bizarre journey through some of Britain’s most offbeat tourist destinations.”

But it doesn’t take long for the dream to fade. Litterbugs, noisy teenagers and pre-booked caravan sites, not to mention Tina’s meddling mother, soon conspire to shatter Chris’ dreams and send him, and anyone who rubs him up the wrong way, over a very jagged edge…
