The third film from award-winning director Ben Wheatley (Down Terrace, Kill List), Sightseers is written by its stars, Alice Lowe and Steve Oram with additional material by Amy Jump.

After Kill List (which was my favourite film from last year), and Down Terrace, I can't wait to see what Wheatley does next. It's also just been picked up by IFC for North American distribution - I'm hoping we'll get release dates for the US and UK soon.
