Jennifer Lynch Releases Some Steam in Chained Trailer

Vincent D’Onofrio toplines the cast which also includes Jeepers Creepers‘ Gina Phillips (welcome back to the genre fold, Gina).  Lynch saw a somewhat decent return with Surveillance, but then things turned sour with Hisss, which was a disaster and the result of…a lot of factors, including the film reportedly being taken out of Lynch’s hands in the editing room.

Looking at the trailer for Chained, there appears to be some anger behind it for sure.  Also, is it me or is D’Onofrio channeling his Men in Black “I’m an alien wearing an Edgar suit” drawl?

Coming home from a routine trip to the movies, eight-year-old Tim (Bird) and his mother, Sarah (Ormond) are picked up by a psychopathic cab driver named Bob (D’Onofrio).

It ends up being their last ride together. Bob murders the young boy’s mother and keeps Tim as his unwilling protégée, making him clean up the mess following each murder he commits. After a couple of aborted escape attempts, Bob chains Tim  – now renamed Rabbit  – allowing just enough length to move freely within the house. 

As the years pass, Bob starts instructing Rabbit, teaching him anatomy and human behavior. Now a teenager, Rabbit (Eamon Farren) is slowly being pressed by Bob to start his own homicidal spree. Slowly but surely, he must soon choose whether to follow in Bob’s serial killer footsteps or make one final, desperate attempt to break free…
