New Trailer for 'Mad Max: Fury Road' is Intense, Violent, and Disturbing


George Miller's been waiting a lot of years and enduring a ton of headaches to bring Mad Max: Fury Road to the big screen, and he's not pulling any punches whatsoever. If the insanity of the awesome trailers we've seen so far wasn't clue enough, the MPAA has just given the film an 'R' rating for  "intense sequences of violence throughout, and for disturbing images." Surely that's music to the ears of any diehard Mad Max fan.

Now another chance to see the face-melting action has arrived with a new international trailer. Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron, and Nicholas Hoult lead the film which is basically one long, maddening chase across a post-apocalyptic landscape.  Here's the official synopsis:

Haunted by his turbulent past, Mad Max believes the best way to survive is to wander alone. Nevertheless, he becomes swept up with a group fleeing across the Wasteland in a War Rig driven by an elite Imperator, Furiosa.  They are escaping a Citadel tyrannized by the Immortan Joe, from whom something irreplaceable has been taken.  Enraged, the Warlord marshals all his gangs and pursues the rebels ruthlessly in the high-octane Road War that follows.

Mad Max: Fury Road burns rubber on May 15th.
