More About Mob Land

Screen Rant is excited to present these new posters for Mob Land, along with an exclusive clip. In the exclusive clip, the Sheriff, played by John Travolta (Pulp Fiction, Grease), is checking on Shelby, played by Shiloh Fernandez (Evil Dead). While Shelby does his best not to seem suspicious, his uninvited guest, Stephen Dorff (Blade, Old Henry), gains the Sheriff’s attention. Shelby introduces him as his new sponsor, and while he plays it cool, the Sheriff remains suspicious. They use the excuse of hog hunting as to why they are meeting up and even invite the Sheriff along, but he declines, making a veiled threat.
