Cut From The Cloth
Is there any way to process trailers for films like this except to say to yourself “here we go again”? Another assault on normal everyday domesticity by “the other.” And yet it seems (a terms that means nothing when you’re talking about a trailer) a cut or two above. Maybe.
For a creepy UFO thriller coming out in 2013 this thing looks exceptionally promising.
This looks okay, but I can’t watch films like this in the theater. The entire time I sit there and wonder “How many actresses passed on this flick before they were able to land Keri Russell?” Does she even crack the Top 50? Top 75?? It always bugs me for some reason. Not to mention her costar – who the fuck is THAT guy? Was John Corbett or Dylan McDermott holding out for more cash?
And after just writing that comment, I realized that there is most likely a spreadsheet that studios, producers, and casting directors have that lists every working actor according to their asking price, and then they skim down to their cast budget and work from there. I mean, of course that’s what they do. I NEED to see a list of “quotes” like this. Someone post a link to where this shit is talked about, please. TIA…
Josh Hamilton is a terrific stage actor who doesn’t get nearly enough film work. I first saw him twenty years ago in Frank Marshall’s ALIVE and he hasn’t aged a day since. Probably has a Dorian Gray picture of himself hidden somewhere.
The alien/ufo abduction thing has been done countless times.
This film really needs a different angle in order to really intrigue me — but from that trailer, it hasn’t.
But if Sean Connery makes a cameo, please disregard what I just said.
From the director of Priest and Legion? The odds are not in its favor. Looks like a damn Shyamalan movie.
I couldnt’ for the life me of me remember that chick’s name. She looks 55 years old.
Also, what the hell are PRIEST and LEGION?
And if you write a script about weird shit happening in your house, you better make sure there’s a good reason for your main characters TO STAY IN THAT HOUSE. This trailer screams – move the fuck out of there.
End of plot. End of interest. this opens to 6.6 million and dies at 18.
“Hey, we got people coming over, get your butt home.”
(pause)
“An epic game of Modern Warfare.”
“That’s what save buttons are for for, pal.”
WTF are save buttons? Who writes this shit?
Keri Russell is severely undervalued. She’s just always good, no matter what the material or how small the role.
Damn shame. Halfway through the trailer I thought this might be a shade of The Mothman Prophecies. But its 2012 and directors/producers no longer have the restraint to make an effective yet subtle supernatural thriller. So many CG crayons to play with!
