Trailer for Area 51 [ARE51] Oleg Max Apr 23, 10:27

this looks like it can have legs...On Demand though? {nm} aleksthegreat Apr 23, 11:14

If it was good, it would have come out 2 years ago. {nm} Antibody Apr 23, 11:17

funny you said that, I was wondering about it back then - Like, what happened to this film.... {nm} aleksthegreat Apr 23, 11:21

with what happened with it Follows & distribution commitments hinging on demand at BO controlling new directions, you never know aleksthegreat Apr 23, 11:22

ITFLW built buzz on the festival circuit. This is the first drop of news for ARE51 and the news is 3 weeks away. {nm} Antibody Apr 23, 11:30

*release is 3 weeks away. {nm} Antibody Apr 23, 11:30

don't be ANTI Area 51, have faith, The trailer isn't bad for what is it (in the vein of Blair Witch w/more manipulation) - ALIENS are coming {nm} aleksthegreat Apr 23, 11:31

i've seen it and dmac is right about the film {nm} Moviesnob Apr 23, 11:43

Possibly the worst trailer I've ever seen. {nm} Initech Apr 23, 11:57

With the distributor behind it, the bigger question is, can it expand to more theaters after limited release? That's the bigger question... {nm} aleksthegreat Apr 23, 12:03

It's Day-n-date VOD. No, there's no bigger question. {nm} Antibody Apr 23, 12:12

even if it could (it cant) it wouldnt. the distributor's track record bares that out as well with just a tiny bit of internet research... Moviesnob Apr 23, 12:12

Umm... aren't... *you* releasing it, MovieSnob? The headline made it sound like Drafthouse was the only theatrical. {nm} tawdryhepburn Apr 23, 13:10

nope! DHF and ADC (alamo drafthouse cinemas) are separate entities. Tim runs both {nm} Moviesnob Apr 23, 13:18

Thanks for the clarification. {nm} tawdryhepburn Apr 23, 14:13

Try 4 years ago. Buddy of mine worked on the 2nd, 3rd, and 6th reshoots iirc. {nm} tawdryhepburn Apr 23, 13:08

The Poughkeepsie Tapes might be the best found footage horror ever made, and it's never getting a release {nm} MrZero Apr 23, 14:17

that many reshoots? What about the budget? They kept on having to get new financiers? No leak or anywhere online to see Poughkeepsie Film? {nm} aleksthegreat Apr 23, 17:35

Can't tell if you're serious. Poughkeepsie Tapes is almost unwatchable, in my opinion. {nm} RupertPupkin Apr 23, 18:27

That's what makes it great. {nm} Willroast Apr 24, 05:56

If this movie is as good as it's trailer then this will be great. It's a niche, but there are still people that want more. {nm} Willroast Apr 24, 06:26
