‘Primitive War’ Drops New Bloody Trailer at San Diego Comic-Con

Just under a month before its grand debut in theatres via Fathom Entertainment, the cast & crew behind independent film Primitive War assembled together at San Diego Comic-Con today to discuss the upcoming flick and debut an all-new trailer. Sparke Films flew out stars Ryan Kwanten (True Blood), Jeremy Piven (Entourage), Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica), and writer/director Luke Sparkem gathering them together for a limited autograph signing of a limited-edition poster and panel/debut of the new trailer.

Set during the Vietnam War, Primitive War finds “A search and rescue team known as Vulture Squad is sent to an isolated jungle valley to uncover the fate of a missing Green Beret platoon. As they hunt through the primordial depths of the valley, they discover ancient horrors that not only threaten to unravel their minds, but to end their lives as well. Dinosaurs have somehow been unleashed! When the casualties mount, the men of Vulture Squad must abandon their human nature and give in to their savage instincts in order to survive…the Primitive War.”

The new theatrical trailer features far more glimpses at the dinosaurs than the previous trailer, delivering on promises of more scientifically accurate dinosaurs, good looking effects, and bloodthirsty action. Tickets for Primitive War are now on sale for select theatres in the United States, with plans for a release in Canada, the United Kingdom, and beyond to come soon.

Check out the new trailer for Primitive War below, and be ready to see it in theatres on August 21!
