The Trailer Park: Universal's 'Death Race'
Friday, June 13, 2008

Head on over to Yahoo! Movies and you can take a peak at the trailer for Paul W.S. Anderson's Death Race (set visit/interviews), which hits theaters August 22 from Universal Pictures. Jason Statham leads the cast of an action-thriller set in the post-industrial wasteland of tomorrow, with the world's most brutal sporting event as its backdrop. A penitentiary full of felons has inspired the jailers to create a grisly pastime ripe for lucrative kickbacks. Now, adrenalized inmates, a global audience hungry for televised violence and a spectacular arena come together to form the Death Race.

I am shocked! I actually throughly enjoyed that trailer, though I think thats mostly becuase Ian Mcshane could turn the worst of anything into gold. Though it does seem to keep most of the thrill of the original intact, good old fashioned exploitation.

Looks nothing like the Death Race 2000. Looks like another PG-13.

uuum i think it actually looks pretty good.. more along the lines of a twisted metal black movie, but hey, rock on.

I think this looks great! Reminded me so much of Twisted Metal.

So...in efforts to "update" a movie about a violent "future," Welcome To The Jungle by Guns n Roses was the song you chose to sell this? Really? No other songs about a violent world exist?

Hehe, I agree, Harold. You'd think we were in the late 80s. You'll have to excuse me, I'm throwing a party and the B-52s' Love Shack is on the ensemble!

...Most music is timeless people. As long as it moves you or has a message, in this case, a message.

They should of play some Beethoven then, maybe?

Where's the open road...Where's the killing of civilians for points...Where's the old lady with the walker...This is more watered down PG-13 garbage.

Also sadly Tyrese off balances any coolness that Ian McShane would bring to the project.

Damn! This looks badass. I can't wait for it now. :)

it looks ok.. i mean after the trailer i feel like i basically watched the whole movie; we know that the people set him up to be put in jail for the race, so where is the excitement?

The excitement is in the contrived speculative spin on The Fast and the Furious and the chest beating male posturing that makes those who see this think that they are bona fide car aficionados.

Looks nothing like the original in any way other than shooting cars and explosions. I don't really need to see it now that I know just about EVERYTHING that happens.

While it may be a fun movie in its own way, they seem to have drained away every ounce of fun and what made the original a classic. Now please leave us with some good memories of older films.

I think this trailer looks pretty lame - It doesn't seem anything even remotely close to the original Deathrace 2000 and the plot of it being convicts wanting to win their freedom instead of just a brutal public race across the country where innocents are killed for points is extremely disappointing. I see comments regarding Twisted Metal...great..then make a Twisted Metal movie and leave any connection to the original alone. Not to mention that using Guns and Roses Welcome to the Jungle isn't timeless...it's safe and tame like this movie looks like it is going to be. I expect it to be a typically barely watchable Hollywood explosion movie , but because it's supposed to be a remake of a cult classic 70's exploitation film...it will suck balls.

this has absolutely nothing to do with the original, it's only abusing the name to get some controversy and viewers.
