Another classic trailer! This one runs for only 2 minutes, and the first minute doesn’t even include any footage from the film, but it so sets a creepy tone for what is essentially a sci-fi riff on the old dark house routine… I love this movie, and after having watched THIS trailer, I think…

Trailer Tracks: Star Wars 1977
In this new addition to The Mind Reels, I thought it would be cool to put up a trailer a day, new, old, upcoming, blast from the past, and just revel in the awesomeness (or lack thereof) in the trailer. For me, what better place to start than this classic trailer before that fateful…

Dead Before Dawn 3D – April Mullen
Last night, at select theatres across Canada, the zemons arrived! Half zombie, half demon, this new brand of terror has slowly but surely been taking the world by storm, and last night, it was our turn. A homecoming, if you will, since the halfbreeds were essentially created right here in Canada – in Niagara…
John Carpenter’s Halloween 35th Anniversary Edition Blu-Ray
One of my fave John Carpenter films (see my revisit here) gets a gorgeous blu-ray treatment from Anchor Bay in time for its 35th Anniversary! With a HD transfer supervised by the film’s cinematographer Dean Cundey, who whether you know the name or not, has probably been responsible for the way some of your favorite…
