Green Room (Red Band Trailer) (2016)



Simple premise - someone sees something they shouldn't, is then hunted for it.

Looks tense and violent, and has Patrick Stewart as a bad guy.

10 Cloverfield Lane


This is what movie trailers should be. Great atmosphere created by "I Think We're Alone Now" by Tommy James & The Shondells.

The trailer shows me enough about the movie to get me interested, but doesn't spoil the plot. I have no idea how this relates to "Cloverfield," and that's a good thing. The original movie is pretty good, aside from the nauseating shaky camera, but this looks like it could be more of a spinoff than a direct sequel.

John Goodman is also an incredible actor. I have no idea how long the movie lasts beyond Goodman's character's bunker, and from the looks of it, I don't need to see beyond. He can drive a movie on his own.

Will See It


Bonus Goodmen. 
Every time.

Kindergarten Cop 2 (2016)

Dolph

Lundgren.



It's the sequel you never asked for.

It will be terrible. But I have to see it.

The Purge: Election Year - Official Trailer 1 (2016)

Another year, another purge. 

Are you doing your duty?


Such a great premise for a mindless action/horror movie. They can go in pretty much any direction with the series, too. Should make for a fun movie, I just wish we hadn't seen basically the entire plot in that trailer.

Will See It, but did you even have to ask?

The Boy (2016) - Trailer #1

In Theaters
Starring – Lauren Cohan


Great title. I’m already intrigued.

Lauren Cohan - Maggie on “The Walking Dead.” Cohan’s a good actress, but is she good enough to carry a movie?



So she’s a Nanny who will be working at a mansion with a particularly odd-looking painting of a little boy with his parents.

This painting wouldn’t hurt a fly

Enter the Grocery… Man, and you’ve found your love interest. Good chance he’ll try to sacrifice himself to save her.

Okay, so you’re a Nanny watching the doll. You’re given a list that includes

2. Don’t Cover His Face
7. Never Leave Him Alone
9. Don’t Forget to Feed Him
10. Kiss Goodnight.

Forget about the fact that they're asking you to treat this CPR Dummy as a real, live boy.

Love Me

You learn that the doll is in fact moving around on its own. You are 100% certain. Why does your list not immediately become

1. Burn the doll
2. Get the Fuck Out

Seriously, why the fuck do you continue to stay there?

As if the doll weren’t enough (which it definitely 100% is), how isn’t the kid’s tombstone tipping you off?


Nope, according to the tombstone, this demon doll is immortal, and you'll more than likely have to fight it at some point. Just go back to working at McDonald’s, Professional Nanny isn’t seeming like a great choice right now.

This trailer starts out strong with good, creepy atmosphere and an interesting premise. If it had stopped at 1:10, after the doll moved in the kitchen, I would have been genuinely interested. But it doesn’t look like there’s anything substantial to hold the plot together, especially if this



is going to be the climax of the movie. Or worse, the final jump scare.


But it is horror, so I probably will see it.

The Final Project (2016)

It's been a long time since I posted. Excuse the short, lazy post. I need to knock the rust off.

Here's a new one:



I hope you stuck around for that one. It's pretty much a snoozer until the last 15 seconds or so, but it's worth it to hear whatever the hell creature that is growl and drag someone's body off-screen. I've heard that noise before--if anyone can help me place it, I'd appreciate it.

Pretty much a cookie-cutter found-footage film. Looks like hot garbage, no one will remember it a year from now.
