Trailers for movies, television and games

This is a community for posting and sharing trailers and teasers for upcoming film, television and video game premieres. The goal is to provide subscribers a curated feed of trailers for UPCOMING media. General-purpose posts about movies, television and games are better suited for other communities around the Lemmyverse. This place is just for trailers.

Rules

  1. All posts must be trailers or teasers; not full movies, not trailers for trailers, and not clips of popular scenes. Meta posts from mod staff are OK, but should be kept to a minimum.
  2. No fan-made trailers or remixes.
  3. Trailers for upcoming content only. Do not spam the community with trailers for media that has already been released.
  4. Link to official channels for trailers whenever possible (ie: the YouTube accounts of each film's studio or distribution company); avoid linking to videos from media outlets that function as aggregators / re-posters if you can.
  5. Post titles should follow formatting guidelines: "Media Name (release year, relevant creator credit)". Creator credits should be directors for films and games, showrunners for television series. Other details such as starring actors, writers, production studios, etc can be added to the post description.
  6. Don't be a jerk.

It's been almost three decades since the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory, and now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected. One such group of survivors lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway. When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders, and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well.

Context: The recording in the trailer is this one of early film actor Taylor Holmes reading Rudyard Kipling's poem Boots.

OK, that might get me in a theater.

Looks neat, but that background music can go fuck itself. Cheese and rice.

Really? I really liked the audio treatment in the trailer here. It's doing splendid work cranking up the tension, and not something I'd heard before.

The old recording seems to be this one of Taylor Holmes reading Rudyard Kipling's poem Boots.

Yeah fam I thought the audio was excellent. I watched the trailer twice, listened to the Taylor Holmes recording, then watched the trailer again. The cryptic numbers, the audio hiss and the eventual comprehension of a recitation that recalls fallen empires and the daily suffering of marching soldiers, it all blends brilliantly with the preview video being shown.

I was like “Wow, strong reaction. How bad could it be?” Then I listened to it…

I appreciate you giving me a shot. It really looks great, and I don't mean to sound spicy, but that music is like that lighting strobe flash that makes you nauseous. Just one man's opinion.

I’m with you. I’m concerned they might have added that audio to the actual movie.

It’s really funny how much worse something can be than “four ascending notes repeating”
