Revenge sports an ugly, pig-nosed face in the upcoming film Piggy, which Metrodome Distribution has announced will hit select theaters on May 4 and then drop on DVD shelves May 21.

Piggy stars Martin Compston (The Disappearance of Alice Creed), features a killer performance by Paul Anderson (The Firm) in the title role and Neil Maskell (Kill List). Piggy marks the directorial debut of Kieron Hawkes who also wrote the film.

The trailer below looks kick ass and for more on the film visit thePiggy Facebook page and follow Piggy on Twitter (@piggythefilm).

Synopsis
Joe (Martin Compston) is a mild mannered young man bored by his humdrum London life. When his beloved brother (Neil Maskell) is murdered, Joe finds solace in Piggy, one of his brother’s old friends. Piggy helps Joe to cope with grief, intent on saving him and helping him get justice for his brother’s killing.

As their friendship grows Joe finds himself in an increasing dangerous and murky world of violence and revenge. As Joe’s life collapses around him he starts to question who Piggy really is, and how honest he’s really been with him. When Joe confronts Piggy a series of events are put in place that lead to a disastrous climax.
