Okay, first, I’d like to recommend that every maker of every film, before sending out a press release, have an actual editor look at it for basic typos and style elements. Nothing makes you looks less professional than a badly-written press release. As for the trailer… hmmm. I don’t even know what they’re trying to sell here. Not plot, because they give it all away right up top. I really think that if you want to sell an audience on something this low-budget, there needs to be some element that stands out about it. Maybe it’s a phenomenal script or at least something humororous. Maybe it’s flat-out sex and violence. But this trailer really doesn’t sell me on the idea that there is anything to the movie that hasn’t been done a million times before — and, in 999,999 cases, far better. Nobody is a bigger fan of vanity projects than I am. My household makes a movie every year, just for fun, that we throw up on Youtube, and honestly, I sincerely believe the one we did last year is better than this. The difference? Script. You can have crappy production values, a cast of amateurs and questionable directing, but a fun, zippy script will make people forgive a whole lotta sins. Oh, and a dance number. We find that always helps, too.
