Christopher Webster [Celluloid 04.25.08] post apocalyptic movie trailer



Since it's one hell of a slow Friday around here I thought it would be the perfect time to share my favorite trailer to come out of Robert Rodriguez's Grindhouse competition at last year's SXSW. Directed by talented Texan newcomer Stacy Davidson, who's insane Italian shocker throwback "Domain of the Damned" received high praise in extreme horror circles last year, Stormtroopers of the Apocalypse has the look and energy of Rodriguez's own super fun zombie flick Planet Terror. In fact for me, it even rivals a couple of the trailers that actually made it into the Grindhouse film proper. Starting off like an eighties slasher pic, SOFA pulls a 180 and introduces you to an insane PA world where a cast of weirdos engage in unrelenting action and mayhem. Watch for the scene where a grenade blows up a car. The FX are pretty sweet. Jut be warned, the trailer is definitely NSFW.

Man i wish this, "Stormtroopers of the Apocalypse" and "Hobo with a Shotgun" where full length movies, or in a grindhouse combo pack (like that of Tarantino & Rodriquez's)! :(

Both look a lot more interesting then "Planet Terror" and "Death Proof"
