Jake Gyllenhaal is on the hunt in Nightcrawler

The new, full-length trailer for Jake Gyllenhaal’s indie thriller Nightcrawler is here and boy, is it a doozy. Gripping, scary and dark it details the story of Lou Blooom (Gyllenhaal), a man desperate to find work and does in the seedy world of L.A. underground crime reporting. Following the “if it bleeds, it leads” mentality, Bloom finds himself at the forefront of this bloodsport, sometimes a part of it. The film also stars Bill Paxton (Titanic) and Rene Russo (The Thomas Crown Affair).

Open Road Films has moved the film from Oct. 17 to Oct. 31, out of the way of major players like Gone Girl, Fury and Birdman.

Nightcrawler was produced by Jennifer Fox, Tony Gilroy, Michel Litvak, David Lancaster and Gyllenhaal, was written and directed by Dan Gilroy (writer of The Bourne Legacy) and will screen next month at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013. He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Hollywood Critics Association (HCA) and the International Press Academy.
