Lionsgate have revealed a new trailer for Rodrigo Cortes’s ‘Buried’, starring everybody’s favourite hero-to-be right now Ryan Reynolds.

The plot: Reynolds plays Paul Conroy, who wakes up 6 feet underground with no idea of who put him there or why and the life for the truck driver and family man instantly becomes a hellish struggle for survival. Buried with only a cell phone and a lighter, his contact with the outside world and ability to piece together clues that could help him discover his location are maddeningly limited. Poor reception, a rapidly draining battery, and a dwindling oxygen supply become his worst enemies in a tightly confined race against time – fighting panic, despair and delirium, Paul has only 90 minutes to be rescued before his worst nightmare comes true.

Check it out below:

If I’m guessing right, this movie was shown at the recent Sundance Festival earlier in the year and got a lot of positive feedback from the direction to the performance itself. It looks pretty intriguing if that is the case, as the film I think is shot throughout in the coffin to which Ryan Reynolds is struggling to get out from.

If that is also the case I can imagine a lot of people not wanting to watch this solely because there is no patience in the world anymore. People will be irritated and believe nothing is happening and eventually come out of the movie saying “It was crap, NOTHING HAPPENED”…exactly those words, trust me.

Nonetheless…Let us know what you think – Heard something different about the movie? Actually intrigued?
