Even a bad movie can have a great trailer.
I stumbled upon this fun web site via Mr. Peel's Sardine Liqueur blog's links of interest. Trailers From Hell offers a wonderful revival and nostalgic look back at old movie trailers. With commentary done by real film folk (John Landis, Rod Lurie, Joe Dante, David DeCoteau, Larry Karaszewski, and others), it's a tribute to film of all kinds (well... from the good to camp to Grindhouse variety, that is). And they present new content (a new old trailer) every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I think this site has it all, except an RSS or Atom feed for those of us who use aggregators the site feed is labeled The TFH RSS Feed (under Coming Soon...) [thanks, Tom Edgar]. Anyway, take a look:
That trailer really DID come straight from hell, having chopped off Satan's head with the axe on its way out!
ReplyDeleteOh, man, this made me laugh. Thanks, le0pard13.
They have some even wilder than that, PCN.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
LOL...this is so funny. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIt's a fun site, Bev. I see they posted Shogun Assassin for today's trailer. I don't think they'll ever run out of material to work with. Thanks for your comment.
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing Straitjacket on tv when I was young. Even then I thought Joan Crawford should have taken the axe to the wardrobe people.
ReplyDeleteLOL!!! That's a good one, Corey. Thanks.
