Writer/director Mickey Keating (Ritual, Pod) is both super talented and super busy, and while we wait for a release date for his fourth feature, Darling, today already brings a clip from his fifth. It’s a violent thriller titled Carnage Park, and it world premieres at Sundance on Tuesday.

“Carnage Park is my total love letter to Peckinpah, and Deliverance, and ’70s survival movies,” Keating told EW. “It’s set in 1978 and it’s a crime story [which] turns into a fight for survival. It’s hard to categorize in a way, because it’s an energetic crime movie that goes horribly horribly awry. I think it’s going to be something different for people.”
