‘The Woman In Black’ Trailer

Ah, what makes me more interested than a movie where people have accents? It’s creepy, abandoned homes filled with weird animatronic toys that are playing instruments, clown toys that are contorting or twirling around, and scary faces appearing while three scary little girls approach the window to apparently dive to their deaths. Not sure if that actually happens, but it’s insinuated in the first trailer.

Speaking of the first trailer, it seems to be vastly more interesting and interest-grabbing than the second one, which looks like it was made to appeal to the crowd that goes to see Final Destination 900.

Trailer 2

This movie also seems to have quite an interesting cast, so I can say, I will see this.

Alright, admittedly at first glance I was like, “not another stupid ‘idiots-go-into-the-woods-and-get-cut-up film,” but then I was like, “Wait…Joss Whedon?” and I was thought maybe this could be worthwhile. Plus, Chris Hemsworth is yum. It’s quite obviously a mix of horror and sci-fi and it’s that bit of sci-fi that peaks my interest because I hate the stereotypical horror/slasher/idiots in the woods in an old cabin movies.

We’ll see if it’s good later.

This is just what I need this winter, a wonderful Norwegian thriller. I’m not being sarcastic either…I need this.

Some kid gets sent to a boys school/jail where Stellan Skarsgård is the head-master who appears to be a giant ass. The boys then try to escape, at least that’s what the U.S. trailer shows.

The Norwegian trailer shows pretty much the same thing.

It came out last year overseas, and somewhere over here in December, which means in Michigan no one will get it as usual because everyone apparently still wants to see ‘Alvin & the Chipmunks’ instead of a good, old foreign movie (yes, I am a bit of a movie elitist).

Also, once again there is a poor translation of the actual title…
