Of all of the movies coming out in the second half of 2019, there’s only one that features John Travolta as a bowl haircut-having stalker.
In addition, The Fanatic was co-written and directed by Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst.
Pause to take that in.
This is Durst’s first full-length feature since 2008’s The Longshots.
VICE is describing the trailer as “One Hour Photo on a much smaller budget mixed with…Limp Bizkit”:
To start, there’s Travolta’s almost unrecognizable appearance: the hair, the painfully awkward posture, the plaid shorts, and the dorky short sleeve button-ups.
But as the clip progresses, Travolta’s character becomes menacing. He’s obsessed with action star Hunter Dunbar (Devon Sawa) and quickly turns into a violent stalker. Between the hockey masks and the editing, the trailer has heavy throwback thriller vibes: think Fear, or One Hour Photo.
And frankly, it rules.
Tape rolling, rolling, rolling:
The Fanatic will confuse and disturb in theatres on August 30.
