Video: US President Samuel L. Jackson stars in this bonkers new film that looks nuttier than squirrel crap

This has cult-classic written all over it...

This has cult-classic written all over it…

There are very few people that can lay claim to the title of ‘coolest man on the planet’ but Samuel L Jackson is so slick that he would probably strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger if you laid claim to his throne.

We’ve already discussed at length what makes him cooler than the other side of the pillow but his new film looks like he’s happily reverting back to Snakes on A Plane levels of lunacy and quite frankly, we’re delighted.

In his latest film, Big Game, the baddest motherf#*ker alive plays the US President who finds himself in a spot of bother after Air Force One crash lands in a Finnish forest where he has to rely on a young hunter for protection from terrorists. As you do.

Imagine Escape from New York meets Die Hard with a little bit of Rambo: First Blood thrown in for good measure but it’s all set in a Finnish forest.

We also agree that this is going to be the greatest film of all-time. Take a look.
