A pretty cool act of recycling, I thought. <br /><br />Matt, I'm surprised you never saw this before - glad I posted it! <br /><br />Senksi, I don't remember that teaser for Lifeforce - although there were a couple of trailers I did look for in assembling my picks that sadly I couldn't find. Oh, well - luckily most of my choices were available. <br /><br />Thanks for the comments, everyone - have a Happy Halloween!Jeff Allardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04265550466781988388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-20865678793608352332009-10-31T10:33:40.810-07:002009-10-31T10:33:40.810-07:00Perfect choice!

The Grand Theater in Wausau - one of the largest opera houses in the Midwest - packed to the rafters. When the words "The Shining" came up, the crowd went nuts, then got very quiet, intent on the screen. Some idiot piped up "Do something!" and everyone laughed. Just then the elevator doors opened. It took a moment for people to process what they were looking at...and then, boy, did they ever get quiet again...<br /><br />Heh heh heh.<br /><br />Happy Halloween, Jeff!<br /><br />On a somewhat related topic, did you ever see the teaser for Lifeforce? The one with the "blink?" Man, I'd love to catch that again, and I can't find it anywhere...senskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15469603484774090192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-90353807636086533192009-10-31T09:39:05.860-07:002009-10-31T09:39:05.860-07:00Alright, it's not Leatherface, but certainly a...Alright, it's not Leatherface, but certainly a great pick for number 1! <br /><br />I have never seen that teaser before and I am surprised it ran at all with that wicked amount of blood. That one little static shot made me want to watch the movie again real soon. Awesome pick for numero uno!<br /><br />Have a great Halloween, Jeff!Matt-suzakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16215962688591291944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-58271156501351375432009-10-31T09:22:18.824-07:002009-10-31T09:22:18.824-07:00whoops, guess those credits don't really roll ...whoops, guess those credits don't really roll "backwards". still mighty eerie.Blue Sevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01076687900710701290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-22803418645646194262009-10-31T09:19:29.111-07:002009-10-31T09:19:29.111-07:00Probably my favorite trailer of all time.

I know we weren't at the theater to see a scary movie, so the trailer playing was out of left field. My mom took the tack of saying "THAT LOOKS SO FAKE! LOOK AT ALL THAT KOOL-AID COMING OUT OF THAT ELEVATOR! HOW STUUUUPID!" but of course that didn't work. Awesomely creepy, and the backwards running credits and that music only compound the creepiness. It's no mistake that the 2012 trailer with the Tibetan monk used the same music.Blue Sevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01076687900710701290noreply@blogger.com
