Worth Watching - July 7: Marcus Dunstan's The Collector Trailer
July 7, 2009
Source: IGN
by Alex Billington
It was only just last week when we brought you the very first poster and an informal introduction to The Collector from writer-turned-director Marcus Dunstan. Now IGN has debuted a fairly short red band teaser trailer for the film for your viewing enjoyment. It's a bit bloody and a bit horrific, but it actually looks somewhat interesting. There's two very distinct stories in this and it also has some Saw-like traps of sorts (as far as I can tell). There's only one shot where you'll say "holy sh*t that CGI looks terrible" (it's with the ambulance) but besides that, this looks like it could be great indie horror. Check out the trailer below!
Watch the red band trailer for The Collector:
The Collector, directed by Feast, Saw IV and Saw V writer Marcus Dunstan, follows the story of handyman and ex-con Arkin (Josh Stewart), who aims to repay a debt to his ex-wife (Daniella Alonso) by robbing his new employer's country home. Unfortunately for Arkin, a far worse enemy has already laid claim to the property – and the family. As the seconds tick down to midnight, Arkin becomes a reluctant hero trapped by a masked "Collector" in a maze of lethal invention – the Spanish Inquisition as imagined by Rube Goldberg – while trying to rescue the very family he came to rob. The Collector hits limited theaters on July 31st.

I'm not even sure that was CGI. Looked more like my kid pushing one of his toy ambulances off of an ant hill. On the story, looks like an interesting premise that maybe fell under the direction of a one trick pony.

Was that really worthy of a red band?

Ooooooooooh twisteeeeed.
I feel like some psychopath wearing a gimp mask gouged out my eyeballs and started fucking the empty sockets with their razor dick.
How do these serial killers find the time to plan out their meticulous slaughter?
That was nearly as bad as watching Michael Jackson's funeral concert tonight. Nearly.
And they showed a clip of the guy falling on the bear traps, surely he'd die if that happened?

Is it just me or does the line "Tonight, Survival is Earned" sound familiar?
#6 You'd be suprised how much spare time a serial killer has.
Oh and naaaaa, falling on multiple bear traps is not lethal, it just stings abit.

This has got B-movie written all over it. But this looks really cheap. even for horror flicks.

Looks good. Reminds me a The Panic Room and The Strangers had an incest baby who went to Yale, not Harvard, but Yale.

The ambulance looks like a PS2 intro for a car race game…

Not really my kind of movie. The concept's great, though!

It's 'The Ref' vs. 'Saw' in a no-holds-barred match-up.

of course it deserves to be a red band trailer to all the people who question if it should be…wud u really like a young kid or ur child to watch that? cause it is a horror movie in fairness and not really for kids.

I saw a movie years ago, quite similar. Can't find the title online. Wife has her husband killed, but he survives. He rigs her house into a maze when she awakes. The rooms keep getting smaller, and smaller, until she has to crawl through a small box, and she gets trapped in it. The husband removes the box, and buries her in it.

@ #28. I don't remember the name of that movie either, but I know what you're talking either.
Looks interesting though. If that thief survives in the movie, I'm sure he'll never want to try and rob another house again. xD
