Today the official trailer was released for the Butcher brothers' remake of the classic '80s horror film, April Fool's Day, which arrives on DVD everywhere March 25 from Sony Stage 6. The trailer, which can be viewed here, looks very similar to the original if you ask me. Each April Fool's Day, fabulously wealthy young Desiree Cartier (Cole) hosts the most killer coming-out parties at her to-die-for southern mansion. And this social event is never complete without one of her patented pranks. But when this year's joke turns deadly...

Im not sure what to think? It looks ok...but i was expecting so much better. But the quality looks very DTV, they could have at least made it look nicer.

it doesnt look that bad for a DTV, but I would have expected a higher profile remake like this to be worthy of a theatrical release. yet, it isnt.

Looks awesome, I'll definitely be checking it out as I am a big fan of the original and this trailer seems to do the original justice.

Wow. That looks really crappy. I had semi-hopes for this until it was announced DTV. And I agree the quality looks horrible. I'll definently pass on.

Amazing how I'm not the only one who thought it looked like a fucking daytime soap. Anybody that gives this piece of rhino feces a chance has got to be mentally incompetent.

Looks like crap. But I'll rent it, just because I can't resist a slasher, whether it is good or crappy.

this is dissapointing, i liked the original but didn't like how it copped out. i was hoping this would fix that... just looks dumb

I'm sorry, can someone point out how this looks anything like the original? That movie was about a woman who takes her friends on a weekend trip to her family's mansion, and killings begin. Not about an accident at a party that then haunts a group of kids 1 year later. This looks pretty weak, I was expecting a lot more from the butcher bros - it definitely looks NOTHING like the original in anyway aside from the title.
