“Red Hill” Rolls In On Blu-ray
Again, we’re really late on this story, but after just watching the trailer for Red Hill in front of my Blu-ray of Justified I had to bring this tidbit of information to our readers. Australia may have just brought us the answer to that horrible film dreck known as Jonah Hex. I watched the trailer and thought this looked great! The Blu-ray releases next week and I may just blind-buy it. Read about the film and watch the trailer below!

Bring Red Hill home on Blu-ray Today!
Patrick Hughes, the director, served as producer, writer, and editor. Another Australian version of Robert Rodriguez. The film cost only 3 million to make. Looks great, in my opinion.
Missed it by a day in Theaters, looking forward to checking it out.
It really follows a basic action/revenge flick formula, but man it works. It really feels like a companion film to “No Country For Old Men.” The visual feel and style, that is. I recommend it.
That’s great to hear, Kyle!
I’ll have to add this to my rental list.
would definitely like to check it out…
