There is so much anxiety in the world at the moment. But for some of us it’s good to know movies are still being announced. It’s a nice diversion from the worry and stress. The South by Southwest film festival was cancelled and several notable movies missed their world premieres. One was “The Quarry”, a mystery thriller starring Shea Whigham, Michael Shannon, and Catalina Sandino Moreno. That cast alone was enough for me.
The movie’s trailer dropped last week and it looks promising. Shannon plays a small town police chief who begins to suspect a new preacher (Whigham) isn’t who he claims to be. In addition to the cast I love the setting and the trailer builds a good sense of suspense. This could be a tense, fun southern noir.
“The Quarry” is set for an April 17th release in select theaters (maybe) and on-demand. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.

Oh yeah! Definitely going to see it. “The reverend” is a good bad guy, and I watch anything with Michael Shannon.
I’m with you on Shannon. I REALLY like the look of this. And it’s coming on-demand which is great considering the current state of things!
Oh yes, I’m up for this!
Me too! Won’t have to wait long!
I saw this trailer a few days ago. Looks interesting as seeing Michael Shannon and Shea Whigham together is just cool. Let’s hope it’s on Netflix or something since all the movie theaters are closed.
It is also debuting on-demand which is exciting!
Looks good!
I’m excited for it.
