Trailer of the Week: The Andromeda Strain

Leave it to Hollywood and the late Michael Crichton to provide the perfect cinematic escape in these dark times...

Trailer of the Week: Iron Sky (2012)

Wow! All this happened in 2018 and the mass media said not one word about it. I wonder why.

But seriously, folks!

This trailer is so over-the-top I can't help but fear that the movie itself in no way does it justice. However, it does seem more entertaining than The Purge.

Trailer of the Week: Godzilla (1998)

I saw this again last weekend and I was surprised by how much of it looked like a Jurassic Park sequel. Which kinda sums up the biggest problem most people had with this movie.

Trailer of the Week: Night of the Lepus

Bunnies, bunnies, it must be bunnies!

Trailer of the Week: Alita: Battle Angel

Cool! A Latina superheroine. This actually looks interesting, which means all the white film critics who are usually all about diversity when promoting their own favorite movies will undoubtedly find something wrong with it.

Trailer of the Week: Gojira (1954)

You say Gojira, I say Godzilla. Let's call the whole thing off...

But, seriously, folks...

This is the trailer for the original Japanese version of the movie that we Americans call Godzilla.

Trailer of the Week: Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971)

The last of the more imaginative Planet of the Apes movies. After this, the deluge.

Trailer of the Week: Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970)

And I thought that today's movie trailers had a lot of spoilers...

Trailer of the Week: Planet of the Apes (2001)

The ape movie that time forgot -- with good reason.

Trailer of the Week: Tarantula (1955)

Not even dynamite? What is it with these modern-day spiders?

Trailer of the Week: Them! (1954)

Believe it or not, the late James Arness also made science fiction movies. But alas, he didn't always get mentioned in the trailer.

Trailer of the Week: The Invisible Woman (1940)

No, this movie was not inspired by any female celebrities or politicians and shame on you if you actually think otherwise. I do find depressing, though, to note the great John Barrymore was not playing the leading man but rather the eccentric scientist. However, Virginia Bruce is still easy on the eyes -- er, at least she is when you can see her.

Trailer of the Week: The Time Machine (1960)

Please don't sit around this weekend like some Eloi.

Go see a movie before the Morlocks take over.

Trailer of the Week: The Crazies (1973)

What? You say there is a political message in this movie? You must be insane...

Trailer of the Week: Last Night (1998)

Don't spend all weekend nursing your hangover from New Year's Eve.

Why not go out and see a movie from a cheerier time?

Trailer of the Week: The Birds (1963)

For Campaspe aka the Self-Styled Siren.
