I’m feeling better and better about this film every time I read something new about it!! MONSTERS: DARK CONTINENT is a sequel to Gareth Edwards’ 2010 film MONSTERS and is directed by Tom Green, written by Green and Jay Basu, and stars Johnny Harris, Sam Keeley, Joe Dempsie, Nicholas Pinnock, Kyle Soller, Parker Sawyers, and Sofia Boutella. Check out the plot crunch:

Ten years on from the events of Monsters, and the ‘Infected Zones’ have now spread worldwide. In the Middle East a new insurgency has begun. At the same time there has also been a proliferation of Monsters in that region. The Army decide to draft in more numbers to help deal with this insurgency. Two soldiers embark on a life-altering mission through the dark heart of monster territory in the deserts of the Middle East. By the time they reach their goal, they will have been forced to confront the fear that the true monsters on the planet may not be alien after all.

I’m just hoping the whole theme of “the real monsters are human beings” isn’t going to be shoved down our throats like it was in the first film. MONSTERS: DARK CONTINENT is now slated for an April 17, 2015 release. I’m still keeping my fingers crossed this is just a good old-fashioned giant-creatures-fuck-stuff-up flick. Dig on the new trailer and let me know what you think.
