Here’s The Trailer For A Quiet Place: Day One

Posted on February 7, 2024 by Lisa Marie Bowman

A Quiet Place: Day One is coming out in June. It’s another Quiet Place film, just without any of the characters that you actually care about from the previous two films.

“Find out why the world went silent.”

Uhmm, don’t we already know that? Like the aliens that hunt by sound showed up so everyone had to be quiet to avoid being killed in a grisly manner? See, this is why I’m not a fan of prequels. A lot of times, prequels are based on the idea that people are asking question that no one is actually asking.

Anyway, A Quiet Place: Day One was not directed by John Krasinski and it does not star Emily Blunt but they both appear in the trailer. It was directed by the guy who did Pig, which was a good film. Honestly, this kind of feels like Chloe Zhao doing The Eternals and then vanishing.

Here’s the trailer!

Here’s The Trailer For The Bikeriders!

Posted on December 18, 2023 by Lisa Marie Bowman

Here’s the latest trailer for a film that I am definitely looking forward to seeing in 2024, The Bikeriders! Directed by Jeff Nichols of Mud and Take Shelter fame, The Bikeriders is a fictionalized look at the history of a notorious outlaw motorcycle gang. Even if I didn’t have a weakness for bikers, the fact that the cast features Austin Butler, Norman Reedus, Jodie Comer, and Tom Hardy would be more than enough to pique my interest!

Here’s The Trailer for IF

Posted on December 14, 2023 by Lisa Marie Bowman

John Krasinski has gone from being the cute smirky guy on The Office to an action hero to a legitimately good horror director. Next year, the Krasinski saga will continue with IF, a comedy that he has written and directed about a father, his daughter, and a host of “imaginary friends.”

The trailer dropped today and it’s cute enough to be interesting. A bearded Ryan Reynolds plays the father and it appears that a host of familiar names will be voicing the IFs.

Here’s The Trailer For American Star

Posted on December 13, 2023 by Lisa Marie Bowman

I don’t know much about American Star, other than it stars Ian McShane.

From the trailer, it appears to be yet another film about an over-the-hill hitman having to do one last job. That’s hardly inspiring but some of the visuals in the trailer are intriguing, especially the scenes with the boat. McShane is 81 and perhaps a little bit old for this type of film but, in this trailer, he doesn’t look a day over 70. If anything, he still looks like he could give Liam Neeson a run for his money.

Here’s the trailer!

Here’s The Trailer for Civil War!

Alex Garland has got a new film coming out in April of 2024. It’s entitled Civil War and it imagines a near future in which America slips into …. well, civil war. There’s a lot of talented people in the cast, like Kirsten Dusnt and Jesse Plemons.

That said, the trailer dropped today and it almost feels like a parody of these type of films. I almost laughed out loud when I heard the newscaster say “three-term president” because it just felt like such an awkward piece of exposition.

Anyway, I could be wrong and there are a lot of talented people involved with this film. So, here’s the trailer:

Here’s The Latest Trailer For Dune: Part Two

Posted on December 12, 2023 by Lisa Marie Bowman

Dune: Part Two was originally supposed to be out already. It was scheduled for an October 20th release but the date was pushed back several times, first to November and then, as a result of the SAG-AFTRA strike, to March of 2024. Despite all the online angst over it being moved back, it’s perhaps the best thing that could have happened to this film as it now seems to be the 2024 film that everyone is anticipating the most.

(Certainly, it’s the most anticipated March release that I can ever remember.)

Here’s the just-released third trailer for Dune: Part Two!

Here’s The Trailer For Handling The Undead

Posted on December 7, 2023 by Lisa Marie Bowman

Handling the Undead may be a zombie film but, as it’s based on a novel from the author of Let The Right One In, I think it is safe to assume that it will hardly tell a standard story of the undead.

The film will be premiering at Sundance in January. Watch the trailer below!

6 Trailers For The End Of The Third Week Of Horrorthon

Posted on October 22, 2023 by Lisa Marie Bowman

With the third week of Horrorthon coming to a close and the final week about to start, I have to really ask myself, “Where does the time go!?”

Well, as I consider that, why not check out this special Horrorthon edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Film trailers!

Ruby (1977)

In this film from 1977, the great Piper Laurie plays Ruby, a former gun moll who owns her own haunted drive-in theater!

2. Drive-In Massacre (1976)

Ruby was not the only 70s horror film to be sent at a drive-in. There was also 1976’s Drive-In Massacre!

3. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

And what were they all watching at the drive-in? Depending on the year, they could have very well have been watching the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre!

4. The Legend of Boggy Creek (1972)

Another drive-in of the 70s was this documentary about the search for the Fouke Monster.

5. The Town That Dreaded Sundown (1976)

The Legend of Boggy Creek was such a hit that director Charles B. Pierce was able to follow up with The Town That Dreaded Sundown.

6. The Evictors (1979)

The Town That Dreaded Sundown was a bit enough hit that Charles B. Pierce was able to follow it up with The Evictors.

Such is the power of the drive-in!

6 Trailers For October 13th, 2023

Posted on October 13, 2023 by Lisa Marie Bowman

Happy Friday the 13th! Since today is a special day, here’s a special edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Film trailers! The theme today is …. DON’T GO IN THE WOODS!

Friday the 13th (1980)

Obviously, I had to start things off with the trailer for the original Friday the 13th! This trailer puts a lot of emphasis on Marcie’s dream about the rain turning into blood. I have to say that is a pretty intense dream.

2. The Burning (1981)

After Friday the 13th, there were many movies about the dangers of going to camp. The Burning is one of the best-remembered. Seriously, I’m so glad that I never did the camp thing.

3. Madman (1982)

I reviewed Madman earlier this month but I’m going to share the trailer again. Seriously, camping is bad but yelling, “Madman Marz!” is apparently even worse.

4. Sleepaway Camp (1983)

As bad as those camps are, they’re a picnic compared to Sleepaway Camp!

5. Without Warning (1980)

Of course, it’s not just camps that are dangerous. As the trailer for Without Warning shows, you never know what you might run into in the woods.

6. The Guardian (1990)

Not even the trees are safe!

6 Trailers For The First Day Of Horrorthon

Posted on October 1, 2023 by Lisa Marie Bowman

Today is the first day of our annual October Horrorthon! In honor of our favorite time of the year, here is a special edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Film Trailers.

Enjoy and happy Horrorthon!

House of Frankenstein (1944)

All of the great Universal monsters came together for this film from 1944!

2. House of Dracula (1945)

Everyone had so much fun during House of Frankenstein that it only makes sense that they would get back together a year later for House of Dracula!
