A trailer for The Crazies has hit the net, and while it doesn’t creep me out as much as I would hope a zombie flick would, it isn’t terrible. Unfortunately it isn’t great either. Check it out.
David Dutton (Timothy Olyphant) is sheriff in a picture-perfect American town with happy, law-abiding citizens. But one night, one of them comes to a school baseball game with a loaded shotgun, ready to kill. Another man burns down his house after locking his wife and young son in a closet inside. Something is infecting the citizens of Ogden Marsh…with insanity.
Forced to band together, an ordinary night becomes a struggle for survival as they try to get out of town alive.
At least that descriptive is better than the press release that uses phrases like “Everything is perfect in the small town until suddenly it isnt”
Oh verbal gems like that don’t come along every day.
Either way, the trailer has me moderately interested, if only to see how it stacks up against the George A Romero zombie classic.
