...packed house at the Regal Union Square Theatre in Manhattan was stoked for the midnight screening of Saw III. The crowd of predominantly young men, some with dates, lent sympathetic attention to the trailers for Turistas (American kids trapped in the house of a Brazilian madman) and The Messengers (the Pang brothers' monster house movie). A collective laugh greeted the opening seconds of the Borat trailer. Then came a trailer in, of all languages, German (subtitled in English): a guttural voice observing that in the U.S. 10,000 people are killed each year, most of them by guns. "Americans...

I have to believe that the deep-throated horror-narrator guy that they have for every such trailer is just...
...mean, this movie’s probably going to be awful, but the trailer is really shocking. In two short minutes, we get an incest joke, a premise prominently involving Google Earth™, and a shot of Danny DeVito and Matthew Broderick naked in a sleeping bag together. My nether regions are pretty stoked about this trailer...
