Watch the Entire Explosive ‘Super 8’ Train Sequence!
Over the past week the airwaves have been assaulted by a quartet of TV Spot/clips from Paramount Pictures’ forthcoming Super 8 that combine to reveal the film’s opening train crash sequence (which was teased in the very first teaser trailer last year).
Bloody just scored all four HD clips for your viewing pleasure and have been placed in a nice and tidy order inside.
In theaters June 10 and starring Kyle Chandler, Elle Fanning, Ron Eldard, Noah Emmerich, Gabriel Basso, Joel Courtney, Riley Griffiths, Ryan Lee, Zach Mills, AJ Michalka, “In the summer of 1979, a group of friends in a small Ohio town witness catastrophic train crash while making a super 8 movie and soon suspect that it was not an accident. Shortly after, unusual disappearances and inexplicable events begin to take place in town, and the local Deputy tries to uncover the truth – something more terrifying than any of them could have imagined.”
Why should you care? Super 8 is J.J. Abrams’ homage to old school Steven Spielberg movies — and Spielberg’s Amblin produces. Win-win-win-win.
