One of the most hilarious horror short films in recent years is a fake trailer directed by Richard Gale <style type="text/css">

<div>'Fake trailers' can be great. One of my stepkids was told to direct (with three friends) a five-minute short film for a school assignment. After going through a bucketload of trailers for 'Versus' they decided to direct a trailer, and ended up getting the highest marks in the class (none of whom thought of doing the same, surprisingly).</div>

<div>Jamie Blanks (not quite Orson Welles, I know) got the job directing 'Urban Legend' by putting together a fake trailer for 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'. A Spanish horror director (can't remember which one) also used a specially-made trailer to raise cash to shoot the movie.</div>

2009 1:44 PM<br>> Subject: Fake Trailer<br>> Colleagues,<br>> This is question which may be specific to Japan cinema, or may be a more<br>> general question, but has anyone, either in Japan or elsewhere, ever made a<br>> fake trailer advertising an upcoming movie they never intended to make, just<br>> as a sort of meta-joke and way to draw attention to themselves? I am aware<br>> of unorthodox trailers such as that for Welles' F for Fake, but that is not<br>> quite what I have in mind. What I have in mind is a trailer that purports<br>> to be about an entirely new and upcoming movie, and is presumably sent along<br>> with a current movie, but which depicts a movie that no one ever intends to<br>> make.<br>> Best,<br>> Bruce<br>><br>> ????.????<br>> ???????????<br>> ?????????<br>> ?????????<br>>
