You’ll Never Go to the Store Again After Watching This Trailer for Shopping Tour
As any kid in the world will tell you, shopping is terrifying, and being dragged to the shops by your parents and having to endure endless boredom as they slowly fill their baskets is an experience that will likely leave them traumatized for the rest of their lives.
So a horror movie about shopping only seems like a natural fit, really. We’re getting one in the form of the Russian/Finnish co-production Shopping Tour. The plot sounds too damn crazy to describe so I’ll just let the synopsis below do the work.
It’s being released on DVD in the UK on 26 October. You can order a copy here, or you could, you know, go to the shop and buy it. If you dare.
Synopsis:
Unlucky Russian tourists get more than they bargained for when their shopping trip to Finland turns into a fight for survival. According to ancient Finnish tradition, Summer Solstice marks the one day a year when locals eat foreigners …
From rising Russian star Mikhail Brashinsky comes a ‘biting’ horror satire targeting consumerism, xenophobia, and immigration panic in northern Europe, in a tense, bloody battle for survival. Brashinsky pokes fun at retail-hungry Russians and their idealized Finnish neighbours, playfully imagining that Finland – ranked ‘best country in the world’ by Newsweek Magazine – might not be so picture perfect after all.
