As fans of Bill & Ted eagerly await the third installment of the franchise; Bill & Ted Face the Music, they can treat themselves in the meantime to to director Joe Begos’ indie action-horror-thriller film VFW. The film stars William Sadler alongside the likes of Stephen Lang, Martin Kove, David Patrick Kelly, Sierra McCormick, Tom Williamson, Travis Hammer, George Wendt and Fred Williamson. Sadler, who fans know and love as the Grim Reaper from 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, plays just one of a group of war veterans who find themselves engaged in battle with a psychotic drug lord and his deranged, drugged-up disciples in order to protect a teenage girl who seeks refuge in their local bar after stealing their drugs.
“As the cast grew, it just kept getting better and better because we’d all been in the trenches together,” Sadler told NME about filming VFW. “It was like ‘Old Home Week’ as we’d all sit around in our chairs waiting to shoot with the stories just flying around.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve been thrown over a table and up against a wall but it really was great fun to go into battle again. As an actor, as you get older you tend to get cast as someone who works behind a desk or the father of the lead woman or whatever so it was great to get asked to kick some ass again.”
VFW is already available for digital download after its premiere at Glasgow FrightFest, and we promise it’s well worth the watch for any fan of a good thrill.
