‘Tragedy Girls’ Clickbait Perfection: Craig Robinson Presents the Top 5 Horror Killers as Cute Animals
Gunpowder & Sky’s super fun Tragedy Girls is now in theaters and they’re hoping to gain momentum with the release of the following video that is nothing short of clickbait. I was baited. I clicked. I loved it. Watch as cameo-star Craig Robinson narrates the “Top 5 Horror Killers as Cute Animals”.
The slasher is about two teenagers and their obsession with likes, which makes this video relevant. Either way, it’s super cute…
Trace and I are huge fans of the slasher that follows two budding teenage sociopaths who use their online show about real-life tragedies to send their small Midwestern town into a frenzy, cementing their legacy as modern horror legends. Trace says it “earns a like, a retweet, and a follow,” while I exclaimed that it “leaves a hilarious and bloody mess.”
The full cast is quite impressive, including Brianna Hildebrand (“The Exorcist”, Negasonic Teenage Warhead in Deadpool), Alexandra Shipp (Storm in X-Men: Apocalypse), Craig Robinson (This is the End), Josh Hutcherson (The Hunger Games), and Kevin Durand (“The Strain”, X-Men Origins: Wolverine), with Jack Quaid, Timothy V. Murphy, Nicky Whelan, Austin Abrams, and Kerry Rhodes.
“Sadie and McKayla are two social-media obsessed best friends who will stop at nothing to build their online following. The self-titled “Tragedy Girls” kidnap Lowell, an unambitious local serial killer, and force him to mentor them into modern horror legends by committing murders to blow up on the internet. As the bodies fall, the girls become national news and panic in their small town hits a fever pitch — just then, Lowell escapes! Now with the local Sheriff closing in and their relationship on the rocks, the girls must rethink their plan before they find themselves the latest victims of their own killing spree.”
