EVILE Track Featured In New COLIN FARRELL Movie

June 4, 2010

British thrashers EVILE have one of their songs featured in a new movie starring Hollywood actor Colin Farrell.

The film, "Ondine", which was written and directed by Oscar winner Neil Jordan, tells the tale of an Irish fisherman who discovers a woman caught in his fishing net who he believes to be a mermaid. EVILE's track "Bathe In Blood", from the band's 2007 debut album, "Enter The Grave", is played during the movie.

EVILE lead guitarist Ol Drake comments: "I just sat down to watch Neil Jordan's new film 'Ondine' starring Colin Farrell.

"A while ago we allowed the film makers to use our track 'Bathe in Blood' in the film. About 30 minutes in, the character Alex (Tony Curran) can be seen headbanging in another room whilst his daughter is reading a book, and the tones of 'Bathe In Blood' can be heard.

"It's so bizarre yet awesome to hear one of our tracks in a film and, to my surprise, a great film. It isn't usually my cup of tea but it has a great story.

"Bravo, Mr. Jordan, and thank you!"

"Ondine" will be released on DVD in the U.K. on August 16.

A trailer for the film can be viewed below.
