Dem Trailers: Swede Edition

Son Of Rambow
This trailer has been around for a while now but I haven't seen too many people pick up on it. It kinda seems like the "making films" films are coming at us more often than usual with releases like this one, Be Kind Rewind and Tropic Thunder. So what differentiates this one from the others? We have children making an action movie. If I had access to a camera that young, I mostly certainly would like to think I'd be doing the same thing. Some of the the reviews that have come out have been overwhelmingly positive so that along with my recent British comedy binge will most certainly get me in the theater. Check out the cool ass trailer here.

War, Inc.
Grosse Pointe Blank was a film that kinda really flew under the radar for most people. I really liked that shit. Dan Ankroyd, Benny "The Jet" Urquidez, Jeremy Piven....yeah, that film was pretty funny but I think it was marketed wrong (to be honest, the romantic/action/dark comedy isn't the easiest genre to market) and it failed to reach it true potential. This film seems to ditch the heavy romantic part and emphasize the dark comedy (the commercialization of war & the proliferation of private military corporations) all while seeming to be a spiritual sequel to that film. Check out the trailer over at IGN.com here and then go rent Grosse Pointe Blank to get a taste of what this film is cooking.

Zombie Strippers
Yup, that's the name of the film starring Jenna Jameson & Robert Englund. Trying to build of the success of last year's Grindhouse (check out the poster; it's a blatant rip-off) the only reason I put this film here is because of Mr. Englund. You know him right? Yes, it's good to see Freddy Krueger outside of the striped sweater and dumb hat. Yeah, the rest is really dumb. Check out the trailer here, if you must.
