FILTH Official Teaser Trailer

Release date:
27 September (Scotland) and 4th October (England, Ireland and Wales).

James McAvoy looks like he's having a lot of fun. Nice to see him let loose.

Based on Irvine Welsh's novel of the same name. Author of Trainspotting, Porno, Filth, The Acid House and a few more.

People are talking about some worm thing and how it could be done (been confirmed to be in the movie), so I guess I better read the book XD

Apparently, Welsh did tweet praise of McAvoy's performance in a test screening last year (last post on page 1).

 

[arts&crafts]

haha looks like it will be a comical one

 

[Kinyou]

Looks fun but the hashtag title almost scared me off.

 

[t-ramp]

Count me in. Looks fun.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

That looked brilliant. It's the first time I've seen a British "red band" trailer.

"What made you want to join the police force?"

"Police oppression, brother."

"And you wanted to stamp it out from the inside?"

"No, I wanted to be a part of it."

Love that.

 

[OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather]

Welsh but no Boyle? Okay.

Spoiler

I'm still down. Looks like my kind of movie.

 

[Router]

That's a fantastic fucking poster.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

I just read about that

Spoiler

tapeworm

thing and it sounds insane. Not really sure how they're gonna pull that off in the movie without it being too weird.

 

[Messofanego]

That's a fantastic fucking poster.

It's been a year of great posters. Spring Breakers, Simon Killer.

 

[Discotheque]

i like james mcavoy and this film seems pretty entertaining. will watch.

 

[Messofanego]

Where is Brit-GAF?!

 

[Nyx]

The book is one of my alltime favs.
I miss his talking tapeworm though?

 

[8bit]

It's a good book, I assume

Spoiler

the tapeworm will work in a similar fashion visually to the way the book handles it, in that it moves through corrupts through the text.

My only concern is that James McAvoy is a bit younger than I imagined the lead in this, but otherwise looking good.

 

[SKINNER!]

Great poster. Can't watch the trailer at work so I'll save it for later on today. Really need to get round to re-watching Trainspotting. Last time I watched it was around 2006.

 

[donkey show]

Haha, this looks awesome.

 

[Jedeye Sniv]

Looks good McAvoy is a very watchable actor. I know nothing about the source material though. Best thing for it.

 

[Con_Smith]

I swear I read this book but I can't remember anything about it.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

Where is Brit-GAF?!

We are all-pervasive.

 

[Cereal KiIIer]

He looks like Jesse Margera.

 

[Violet_0]

so why did you type the movie title in caps

Spoiler

/joke

looks great

 

[Akahige]

looks great, time to read the book after owning it for years

Has it been gathering dust?

 

[Peco]

Pollyanna McIntosh is so hot.

 

[Akahige]

Has it been gathering dust?

yes

 

[Messofanego]

yes

We need pics.

 

[Fuzz Rez]

Looks like loads of fun.

 

[IronRinn]

I don't know whether or not to be excited for this one. I thought the novel was very good but never have I wanted a character in a story to die as much as I did Bruce. It's testament to Welsh that he got me to finish his book despite the fact that his subject was such an unlikeable piece of shit. Interested to see how they pull off

Spoiler

the stuff with the tapeworm

, if they even try it at all.

 

[Jackben]

Color me tentatively interested.

 

[Messofanego]

"Scottish Bad Lieutenant" sounds pretty great.

 

[OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather]

"Scottish Bad Lieutenant" sounds pretty great.

Harvey Keitel Bad Lieutenant > Nicholas Cage Bad Lieutenant.

 

[LongDongJunon]

MacAvoy's a busy mother fucker.

 

[UrbanRats]

i like james mcavoy and this film seems pretty entertaining. will watch.

Pretty much.

Harvey Keitel Bad Lieutenant > Nicholas Cage Bad Lieutenant.

They were going for completely different styles, but Herzog tailored that role around Cage, man.

 

[NekoFever]

I can't wait to see reactions to

Spoiler

the ending

, assuming it's the same as the book.

 

[OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather]

They were going for completely different styles, but Herzog tailored that role around Cage, man.

OK.

 

[Screenboy]

It's a great book, will be good to see how it translates on screen.

 

[UrbanRats]

OK.

Glad i made myself clear.

 

[Mechazawa]

Man, that's a pretty phenomenal trailer.

 

[Code_Link]

Looks great!

 

[haikira]

New trailer out. It's similar to the first, but shows a lot more content. Haven't read the book, so don't know how spoilery it is. Didn't seem too bad, but if you're already sold, may want to skip.

Filth - International Red Band Trailer

 

[Count Dookkake]

Fuck yes.

Great book.

 

[Particle Physicist]

Kinda looks like Bad Lieutenant. At least the concept.

 

[Jacob]

Never read the book but the trailers alone are entertaining. I hope the film can live up. Color me interested.

 

[OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather]

Love McAvory's facial expressions in this.

 

[Leucrota]

Harvey Keitel Bad Lieutenant > Nicholas Cage Bad Lieutenant.

They both are great films on their own right. I hope Filth can join the ranks of great slimey cop movies.

 

[Stinkles]

Love McAvory's facial expressions in this.

Whaaaaat?

 

[Peco]

They both are great films on their own right. I hope Filth can join the ranks of great slimey cop movies.

Hell yes, these two trailers look superb!

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

The first trailer was better.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Whaaaaat?

That was the best ending to a trailer since that Hangover III one where Zach G looks over his shoulder at the dead giraffe like "Oh, brother."

 

[Messofanego]

International Red Band Trailer #2

Yup, still looks brilliant. First movie I go to see just for James McAvoy. dat accent.

Bought the book, time to read it.

 

[Discotheque]

lmao. this movie's gonna rock. i think i'll read the book after i watch the film.
