JoBlo.com’s Top 10 Trailers of 2010: Buried

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Welcome to the 10 Best Trailers of 2010. This is the 10th Annual List dating back to 2001 and my sixth year bringing it exclusively to JoBlo.com. If you visit the Trailers Page frequently, you should know my tastes quite well. Keep coming back for the rest of the year and we’ll slowly be rolling out the Top 10 one by one. Sometimes great trailers make great movies and other times they make you see awful movies. Don’t hesitate to strike back below if you think I must be completely nuts. (Also, keep in mind that some trailers that you’ve seen this year were on last year’s list.)


# 9 BURIED



What I really enjoy about this trailer was the abandoning of traditional trailer aesthetics; instead of piling together a bunch of clips, the teaser uses design to sell itself. Buried took a fresh new perspective that hearkened back to trailers from the late 1970s and the early 80s with a modern graphic appeal. This trailer is running on all cylinders and completely engages with the audience. It does a fantastic job of selling the premise without giving any clue about what’s going to really take place in the movie. This is a great trailer and I expect it will be duplicated by lesser films in the near future.
