Thomas Jane’s feature directorial debut, Dark Country, streets in October, but the trailer is out today. Early, glancing comparisons to Wild at Heart and Red Rock West, by way of young-lovers-on-the-road and other generally evoked feelings of Southwestern dustiness, melt away once the now familiar struck-hitchhiker device is introduced, but I’d still rate this moody preview a thumbs up, if only because it doesn’t explicitly spell out what directions it’s taking and moves it’s making, and it looks as if Jane — who also stars in the movie alongside Lauren German, one of Hostel: Part II‘s wayward party girls — and cinematographer Geoff Boyle shot the shit out of this thing.
