Slick, stylish, sexy, and bloody! What more could you ask for? This is all coming from the new movie Nature Morte. A French artist’s term for still life. Literally translates as DEAD NATURE. Get the picture?

This feature filmed on location in Thailand, France and the UK with an international cast looks great. Its stylish use of color and artistic values make you seem like you are watching something from another time. Futuristic yet very retro feeling. At least that is what I get from the trailer.

Along with a bunch of blood and gore for those that can live without the red, this ones looks to be promising and have some real thought to it.

Check out the full synopsis below and links to find out more.

Stay tuned for a full review of this soon!

Synopsis:

Artist John Stephensen (Romain Roll) is found dead next to the body of the tenth victim in a series of murders that had rocked the city of Marseille. Police rule his death a suicide and, when they uncover paintings of his murdered models, they name him as the killer that had been terrorising Southern France.

London based art expert and author Oliver Davenport (Troy McFadden) lauds the murderous artist as the greatest painter of the 20th century and the paintings begin to change hands for astronomical sums.

Two years later, when Davenport is approached by French police and asked for his opinion on a canvas, he confidently identifies it as a genuine Stephensen. But, when he finds the painting is no more than a few months old, doubt is cast as to whether Stephensen was solely responsible for the priceless art and the horrific murders. Davenport and French cop Capitaine Albert (Jeso Vial) pose as art collectors as the hunt for an elusive second man begins

Their search leads them halfway across the world to the artist, Lec (Laurent Guyon), a Frenchman living in exile among the thieves, drug dealers and pimps of the tiny Asian island of Ladang Geta.

Davenport becomes increasingly obsessed with the art he loves and oblivious to the terrible truth behind its creation. His love for Lecs art brings him into conflict with Lecs lover, the heiress Blanche de Ladang (Carole Derrien), a woman who will do anything to keep him by her side.

The story of art, theft, kidnap, murder and ultimately, love, continues in London where Davenport and Blanche compete for the object of their obsession.
