I loved the trailer's shift from romcom to slightly creepy "romantic" to a flash of red and "Wes Craven presents..."
The audience lost it then, and again when the movie's title came up. In a way I don't want to know anything more about it. It was a perfect experience all encapsulated like that.
I agree with you, ita, on the
Red Eye
trailer. I was sitting with my friend B watching it, and I kept nudging him and saying "The music's gonna change, dude. Wait. I'm telling you, it'll be a thriller." But I wasn't expecting the Craven-ness. I don't think I want to see the movie, because it would only ruin the trailer. (Which was the only thing that really scared me the night I saw The Ring 2.)
Because I refuse to leave well enough alone, I checked the IMDB entry for Red Eye, and
I'm disappointed. It's not horror. As psych thrillers on a plane go, I'm picking Flight Plan.
Aww. That trailer was just so damn unsettling.
Ooh. It was written by Carl Ellsworth (who wrote the "Halloween" episode of Buffy).
Wow. That trailer is really good. (Red Eye).
You guys want to know who I want to see play Flash when they make a movie? This guy.
He doesn't look like Barry Allen at all.
But he could kinda be Bart.
Actually, if he were a decade younger, he'd make a great Wally.
However, right now, I think Jason Bateman would make a killer Ted Kord.
