Isolation Stephen Lang and Luke Mably

"Isolation" Trailer Promises a Different Kind of Nightmare Vacation

In the new trailer for Isolation, a couple’s vacation to an out of the way tropical locale is interrupted by pirates, and unfortunately they aren’t the swaggering, rum-loving, Johnny Depp kind. These pirates may get you drunk, but once they do, they’ll break into your house, steal all your stuff and then try to leave you good and dead.

There are shades of A Perfect Getaway in the Isolation trailer, what with the cat-and-mouse games and the vacationing couple forced to fight for their lives against other couples. Heck, a title card bearing the words “perfect getaway” even flashes onscreen at one point. The mice in this case, our vacationing hero-couple, are played Luke Mably and Tricia Helfer. While on a remote island, they meet two other couples who are staying nearby, a cool and attractive couple made up of Dominic Purcell and Marie Avgeropoulos and an older couple (Stephen Lang and Claudia Church) who have a weird style of humor and boundaries issues. It turns out none of their new friends are up to any good and soon everyone is chasing each other with guns, nail guns and even punching sharks.     

Isolation was directed by Shane Dax Taylor and he co-wrote it with Chad Law. There’s no release date as of yet, but until then, watch your booty.
