The first poster to show up for NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH demonstrated how no man in this hood likes extraterrestrials, and now a second has appeared which demonstrates to us that four very serious men + a retro wash = something that is still pretty cool even if there isn’t actually a whole lot going on.
Seems like they’ve settled for trying to sell this movie on the names alone, which is fine and all but unfortunately also a bit expected as marketing is always the trickiest part a high-concept comedy. Or a high-concept anything really lest in the advertising you spoil the surprise, though admittedly THE CABIN IN THE WOODS took up the challenge well.
It’s a tricky line that often strays out of engaging imagery and into a place where the advertising tells you almost nothing except for who is in the movie – think this poster succesfully walks that line?
