BOOK OF ELI Poster

Don’t mess with Denzel Washington, cause he has a machete and he’s not afraid to chop your arm off if you get too close just like what happened to that one poor bastard in the trailer for the upcoming The Hughes Bros.-directed post-apocalyptic action/thriller THE BOOK OF ELI. MySpace has the poster that gives you up close shot of Denzel lookin’ like a badass hobo. The story revolves around a lone warrior (Washington) who must fight to bring society the knowledge that could be the key to its redemption. Gary Oldman plays the despot of a small makeshift town who’s determined to take possession of the book Eli’s guarding. View the whole image after this jump…
