Released straight to DVD here in the UK last month, under the title Sweet Vengeance, Sweetwater premiered at Sundance at the start of the year, and boasts an all-star cast led by January Jones.
And whilst no release date has yet been set in the States, a slightly new trailer has surfaced online, the first bearing the Sweetwater title, giving us a look at Jones front and centre in the Western.
Against the backdrop of the American Old West, newlyweds Miguel and Sarah struggle to make a living cultivating their small patch of land. Soon a much bigger struggle arises as powerful landowner and community preacher Prophet Josiah makes a play for their property. As he launches his diabolical plot to take their land, an eccentric big-city sheriff comes to town. Things soon go from bad to worse, culminating in a jaw-dropping, hell-hath-no-fury showdown.
Jones stars alongside Ed Harris, Jason Isaacs, Eduardo Noriega, Jason Aldean, and Stephen Root.
Brothers Logan and Noah Miller (Touching Home) are directing from a script they co-wrote with Andrew McKenzie, based on McKenzie’s story.
No word yet on a firm release date in the US for Sweetwater, but for those reading this in the UK, the film is now available to buy on DVD, under the name Sweet Vengeance. Here’s the new trailer to whet your appetite.
