Some clips for Pontypool can now be found below. The film will open to limited Canadian theaters on March 6th, while the US will also get a limited theatrical run on May 29th.
Headed to work on a particularly foul Valentine's Day morning, caustic radio personality Grant Mazzy isn't expecting anything different. He'll update the weather, announce school closures, relay the obits and fight with his producer Sydney Briar about how a little controversy makes good radio. Mazzy was a big-shot star before he wound up working at The Beacon, a tiny station run out of the church basement in a little piece of nowhere called Pontypool.
But today things don't seem so run-of-the-mill. A distraught woman, straight from Herk Harvey's Carnival of Souls, nearly runs into Mazzy as he's heading to work. And the provincial police have a shootout with a group of people ice fishing – they may have all been drunk (including the cops), but the suspects were reportedly talking gibberish, running around naked and missing body parts. Then there's the riot at the offices of Dr. Mendes.
