Welcome to the second trailer post of the week.
You can find the first post here. The last trailer post for this week comes tomorrow.
I ended up watching City Hunter (1993), the Guillermo del Toro film Mimic (1997) and the neo-noir Bound (1996) and these productions are so good looking while also having great acting and thrilling/fun stories. There’s definitely more than a nostalgia hit to get this feeling.
What are the next set of films to be released?
