The trailer for **Piggy **has landed and its gives a flavour of what to expect from the Brit thriller. And for Neil Maskell, the answer is "nothing good". The Kill Lister barely makes it past the opening credits before he gets jumped by a bunch of goons, leaving his brother, Joe (Martin Compston), nursing a serious grudge.
The feature debut of Kieron Hawkes, who also penned the script, it's an 18-rated revenger that sees Compston's mild-mannered Joe falling in with the very unmild Piggy (The Firm's Paul Anderson) hoping to get a little payback on the men who offed his brother.
But to paraphrase the Bard, the course of bloody retribution doth rarely run smooth. As you'll know if you've seen any film ever, this kind of Faustian pact tends to lure the unwary into a web of crime, violence and all-round nastiness.
Judging by the trailer, Joe is going to find that out the hard way.** Piggy **is out on May 4.
