The 6 Best Trailers From Hell

As film geeks, we feel it's our responsibility to point you in the general direction of the Trailers From Hell website.

It's packed with fanboy friendly directors, chatting over the top of a bunch of trailers for their favourite films.

Quentin Tarantino hasn't appeared on it yet, but given the format and the fact that loads of his mates appear on the site, it’s only a matter of time before he turns up.

While you wait for him to turn up, check our six of our favourite Trailers From Hell. They're all ace and informative.
