A horror film trailer is arguably the best type of trailer you can watch(I’m biased, I know). They usually have great music and are able to get your heart racing in just two and a half minutes or less. Before it was possible to just watch trailers on YouTube, I was a real stickler for getting to the theater super early so I could look at posters and then catch all of the trailers before the movie started (mostly in the hopes of catching the latest horror movie trailer). This year saw many stellar trailers get released. So many, in fact, that it was incredibly difficult for me to narrow this list down to just 10 entries. With that being said, here are (in no particular order) 10 of the best trailers for horror films released this year!*
*Keep in mind that this is a judgment on the trailer only. The quality of the movie has nothing to do with the trailers included on this list. All trailers up for this list were for films actually released in 2015. If it was a trailer for a film coming out in 2016, it was not taken into consideration.
Bone Tomahawk
This is just a beautiful, haunting trailer. From the opening moments of Wilson getting his leg hammered into place to the final bone-chilling roar of the troglodytes (whom this trailer wisely keeps hidden), the Bone Tomahawk trailer earns its place as one of the best trailers of the year. That cinematography is a thing of beauty as well.
