Synopsis:

On the run and with nowhere to hide, a group of mercenaries find themselves surrounded by an unidentified enemy. As gunfire hails down and their mysterious pursuers begin to close in, they must keep moving to find safe shelter.

The only chance of survival is to hide inside an abandoned tank discovered by inexperienced soldier, Reeves (Rupert Evans). Once holed up inside the tank, they quickly discover the hatch is jammed and there is no way out.

As the mercenaries begin their desperate search for anything that may aid their escape, they fall upon a shocking discovery: confidential files on dozens of soldiers; all listed as missing in action. Within those listed, are their own names.

As discoveries are made inside the tank and they struggle to keep forces outside at bay, little do they realise the real enemy is already amongst them, locked inside Tank 432.

We Like It Because:

As a regular collaborator since Kill List, Nick Gillespie is a key part of the distinctive Ben Wheatley style – a style that’s redefining British horror.Tank 432 has it in full force, with disturbing and disorienting visuals and an unsettling sense of near-psychedelic claustrophobia.

Gillespie makes the film very much his own though, combining his unique story concept and knack for getting under the characters’ skins to make the tension unnervingly real. It’s gripping stuff, from the start to its nerve- shredding finish.

There’s an incredible cast of character actors on hand to turn the tension levels up even further. Rupert Evans proves that he’s one of the UK’s most reliable talents, while Michael Smiley cements his place as a true gem of British cinema.

Intense, terrifying and occasionally mind-bending, Tank 432 is the year’s must-watch British horror.
