New Poster for Horror/Black Comedy HARPOON Will Give You That Sinking Feeling

It’s been just over a week since we shared the first trailer for Rob Grant’s horror/black comedy Harpoon, which I described as “excruciatingly tense” (you can see it for yourself at the bottom of the article). Today, we’re pleased to share the new poster for the film created by celebrated artist Christopher Shy—and it’s sure to give you a sinking feeling!

About the poster:
The daunting deep-sea poster is designed by celebrated sci-fi and fantasy artist Christopher Shy, sometimes credited under the pen name Ronin. Shy’s illustrations have been used to promote video games, graphic novels, add campaigns and more, and most recently includes the poster for Panos Cosmatos’ Mandy.

Synopsis:
Rivalries, dark secrets, and sexual tension emerge when three best friends find themselves stranded on a yacht in the middle of the ocean under suspicious circumstances. With his perfect family and perfect upbringing, Richard appears to have it all. So when he thinks that his long-term girlfriend, Sasha, and best-friend, Jonah, are having an affair, it sends him into a fit of rage that leaves Jonah a bloody mess. Once Jonah and Sasha convince Richard the allegations are false, Richard tries to buy back their trust by taking them out for a day-trip on his family’s yacht. Tension boils-over once out to sea, and, to make matters worse, the yacht’s engine fails. Stranded without food and supplies, the trio must set aside their differences in order to survive. One part post-modern Edgar Allan Poe adaptation, one part Knife in the Water with the cast of Seinfeld, Harpoon is a wickedly humorous and bloody deconstruction of friendship and love.

Harpoon stars Munro Chambers (Turbo Kid), Emily Tyra (Code Black), and Christopher Gray (The Mist). Look for it to premiere at the International Film Festival Rotterdam tomorrow.
