the trailers are rolling in...

Just noticed over at DISContent (where there is also some intelligent discussion on Canadian broadcasting regulations and from a Yank no less!) that some of the trailers in the SXSW GRINDHOUSE trailer contest are up on youtube. FOr more info on this, check our previous post on the subject.Do a search for "SXSW Grindhouse" and you will find plenty. Don't have time to sift through all of them, but here are some highlights below. Some get it, some don't. "CONG OF THE DEAD" is one of my faves, while "Mister Muerte: Trial of the Undead" would get the Italian pop art trailer award. Comments on any other decent ones?

MAIDEN OF DEATH



BLOOD BROTHERS



HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN (a la COMBAT SHOCK?)



CONG OF THE DEAD



MISTER MUERTE



THE CHILD MOLESTER (made with public domain footage)

Hi guys,

Thanks for the shout out. Glad you liked my "intelligent discussion."

Of all the trailers, I think Blood Brothers gets my vote for it's sheer creepiness (which is hard to pull off). The inventive way they used B7W was really fun and kept me wanting to know more about the flick. I wish it existed.

"its sheer creepiness" not "It's."

CONG OF THE DEAD and HOBO are my two personal favorites. The bonus at the end of CONG makes me laugh everytime I see it.
