The good folks at Apple have posted up a slick new version of the MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN trailer in glorious Quicktime for our viewing pleasure, as well as an updated and more elaborate synopsis!
If you head THIS WAY, you can check out the trailer in its Quicktime glory. Based on a story by Clive Barker, MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN goes a bit like this: Next stop…death. When Leon Kaufman’s (Bradley Cooper) latest body of work – a collection of provocative, nighttime studies of the city and its inhabitants — earns the struggling photographer interest from prominent art gallerist Susan Hoff (Brooke Shields), she propels him to get grittier and show the darker side of humanity for his upcoming debut at her downtown art space. Believing he’s finally on track for success, Leon’s obsessive pursuit of dark subject matter leads him into the path of a serial killer, Mahogany (Vinnie Jones), the subway murderer who stalks late-night commuters — ultimately butchering them in the most gruesome ways imaginable. With his concerned girlfriend Maya (Leslie Bibb) fearing for his life, Leon’s relentless fascination with Mahogany lures him further and further into the bowels of the subways and ultimately into an abyss of pure evil – inadvertently pulling Maya right along with him.
Wow, talk about a detailed synopsis! If you had any questions about what the film is about, those should be answered now, as coupled with the trailer and that synopsis, I think they told you pretty much all you need to know.
Except I want to know why is Brooke Shields sucking at line delivery in the trailer? Say what you will, but her little scene screamed of bad acting – and is probably the worse part of the whole thing. Too bad really, as she was one of the film’s biggest stars.
Anyway, CHECK OUT THE TRAILER, and prepare to catch the MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN in theaters everywhere May 16th.
Leslie Bibb: hotter & more believable than Brooke Shields.
