More than half the votes in last week’s Trailer Park poll went to expected winner Black Swan (with 57%). There is definitely a lot of interest in Darren Aronofsky’s latest, far more than any of the other nine films. I am a bit surprised to see the Joaquin Phoenix documentary I’m Still Here garnering so few votes and coming in seventh place (4.1%), though I am glad to see people were into second-place winner, Machete Maidens Unleashed! (10.8%).
This weekend saw the release of The Last Exorcism so it makes sense that we saw a lot of creepy trailers for horror films this week, many of them on Horror Squad rather than here at Cinematical. By coincidence only, I think, are the timely debuts of trailers for the non-horror film 127 Hours, which at least has a gruesome element to it, and the documentary Inside Job, which features a blurb calling it a scarier movie than anything Wes Craven and John Carpenter have ever made. Both of these films were my top two favorites of the week.
Another commonality among this crop of trailers is many of them are screening at the Toronto International Film Festival next month. These include those first two titles, as well as Adam Wingard’s An Awful Way to Die, Guillem Morales’ Julia’s Eyes and Stephen Frears’ Tamara Drewe. Meanwhile, this week’s big star is Danny Glover, who appears in two new trailers — Age of the Dragons and Legendary.
