I don't think I've ever seen a more nonsensical and uncompelling trailer in my life.

I don't think I've ever seen a more nonsensical and uncompelling trailer in my life.

Yeah, it's really weird, feels more like a Sisters comedy to me. It's supposed to be a a psychological thriller series based on the 1988 film of the same name by David Cronenberg.

Here is the original movie trailer for reference:

I'm well aware of the Cronenberg movie. It's actually quite good! That trailer is so tone deaf to the source material, it's actually offensive.

saw a lot of muh women in the trailer, complete with cigar smoking...

Didn't see a lot of other themes. Pass. I gave it a chance and was willing to deal with the commentary up until the montage of the cigar smoking.
