Trailer Review

THE HORDE "La Horde," trailer, is a French Language trailer for a French language film that is supposed to open at selected theaters starting next month. That means art theaters. IMHO, the difference between art theaters and regular theaters is that in the art theater they expect us to be able to read. .

I never heard of the directors Yannick Dahan and Benjamin Rocher, because this is their first film. According to its press, it did well at European film festivals. The story line is that crooked cops, nasty ass gangsters and a horde gruesome zombies do their thing. The story line sounds very interesting. But I have a beef with this movie company that plans to release this film with subtitles. Question: Who goes to a horror flick to read? Who goes to an action flick to read? I go see horror and action movies to watch and to enjoy them. Reading will cut into the enjoyment time. One has to sit up in the seat, with ones peepers on, keep quiet and read. Very much a downer.

Judging from the trailer, and that is how I judge movies in a trailer review, this movie should be dubbed in American English pronto. This movie looks too bad ass for the art house. Now, I know, there are some film companies that cram all the interesting stuff in the trailer. But there is so much interesting stuff for horror and action fans in the trailer. The trailer is awesome.
