Official Poster for Buried

After announcing that Buried would be shown at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, we get a look at the new poster (via /Film).  Buried stars Ryan Reynolds, and well, that’s it.  Reynolds plays a civilian contractor who is working in Iraq and wakes up to find himself buried in a coffin with nothing but a lighter, cell phone and a knife.  Sounds intriguing doesn’t it.

We originally heard about this film over the summer but haven’t heard to much since then.  I like the look of the poster even if it does leave me a little breathless.  I’m sure this film will induce a state of claustrophobia in several people, but I’m interested none the less.  It will also be interesting to see if Ryan Reynolds can hold a film together without the help from a supporting cast.  I think he’s talented and will be able to pull it off.  While he sticks to the quirky characters most of the time, I think he could have the range to pull this off.  In any case, I’m looking forward to it and this poster is a good start.  Buried is directed by Rodrigo Cortes.
