Zack Snyder, eat your heart out. The trailer for Belgian filmmaker Koen Mortier’s lastest film 22nd of May sure is a visual masterpiece. Twitch Film recently posted the trailer and it’s too great to let pass us by.

… While everything around him is burning, Sam tries his best to help. He drags a woman outside against her will. She is screaming, struggling to get back inside to save her child. But Sam is already back on the scene, trying to rescue other victims, all of them just as helpless as he is. They are strewn over the floor, covered in blood, their clothes shredded to pieces, feeling utterly lost. As their cries turn into screams, Sam is overpowered by fear and panic. First there was the shock, then the realization of what happened. Without thinking, he starts to run, turning his back to the apocalyptic scene. He flees, running along the streets of a city that once felt as familiar as a friend, but now seems more like a dark monster …

This is his followup to his quite solid debut Ex Drummer (available on Netflix
Instant!), which if you’re smart you’ve picked up already. Mortier certainly seems like one to watch out for, he’s got an amazing visual style with some quite brutal tastes. More as we hear it…
