New WEAPONS Trailer Is Somehow More Mysterious Kyle Anderson | usagoldmines.com

As a professed horror movie junkie, I’m always chasing the dragon for the new scare fix. I want them spookies so bad I can taste it! It’s not even that I love the feeling of scared. I just want to know a movie is capable of doing it! Also the creepy shit is fun. At any rate, I have no way of knowing whether or not Zach Cregger’s new movie Weapons will be this kind of horror movie, but each and every new piece of marketing has me more and more intrigued. The vibes are certainly there, the mystery is definitely there. Now we have a second full trailer and even more of the “WTF is this?!” is there. I’m excited, can ya tell?

The facts are these, to quote Pushing Daisies. The entirety of Mrs. Gandy’s class, 17 children, all got up one night, without reason or warning, and ran away into the night. It was only Mrs. Gandy (Julia Garner)’s class. Naturally, the town is furious and confused and believe she has something to do with it. But she, evidently, is just as confused as everyone else. One of the parents (Josh Brolin) takes it upon himself to figure out what happened and where they went. It doesn’t look like and easy or fun task.

This trailer shows us a bit more of what happens after the initial mystery and we can glean it’s probably something demonic. The line of salt on the floor the kid steps on, the bell at the end with the rune on it, the fact that grown ups get all bloody faced and snarly… I’m pretty convinced it’ll be somehow demon related. But maybe not! Who can really say? What I will say is this movie looks pretty damn terrifying and that makes me very excited. Scary Benedict Wong?! That’s quite a feat. I loved Barbarian but that one did have a vein of comedy running through the middle section. We don’t have any indication this will be comedic. I feel like this could be the new Hereditary or something.

Weapons comes to cinemas August 8 and dear heavens.
