We got a chance to ask Predator Badlands director Dan Trachtenbert (@DannyTRS on socials) all the questions the other outlets were too afraid to ask: what does a Yautja dong look like? Why didn’t he cast more A.I. actresses? And where did he hide the Arby’s steak nuggets? This, is HONEST INTERVIEWS.

Honest Interview | Predator Badlands

Trailers that get HONEST about what you're really getting from the movie when you buy a ticket. This week is Five Nights at Freddy's!

It’s the Honest Trailer for Weapons! The film that shows the horrifying consequences of telling kids to cut down on screentime and go play outside.

The Conjuring - Honest Trailers

It’s the Honest Trailer for Peacemaker! We watched both seasons so you don’t have to, but you should! It’s a good show if you like grounded, mature themes, like when is it ok to shoot your dad or chainsaw a gorilla? James Gunn and John Cena have a good thing going here, it’s a shame Warner Bros is about to be gutted and sold for parts again…

Honest Trailers | Wednesday

It’s the Honest Trailer for Paul Thomas Anderson’s There Will Be Blood! There will be jokes, but this is honestly one of the best films of the 21st century, Daniel Day Lewis is the GOAT, and PTA may have peaked here, but One Battle After Another is pretty damn close.

Before the reboot?.. parody?.. meta-sequel? Before the new Anaconda comes out, revisit the late '90s when Ice-Cube & J-Lo fought a giant snake and didn't provide ANY tracks for the soundtrack. Gah! Still mad about that.

It's time for the Honest Trailer for The Thing (1982)! We love this movie, and if you don't, you might be a shapeshifting alien. It's got everything: Kurt Russell, John Carpenter, flamethrowers, autopsies gone wrong, killer sled dogs, guys being dudes, aliens being guys, and an ending so ambiguous, we're STILL debating who's who and what's what. Throw it on on a cold night and thank us later, just make sure you're not watching the remake...

All right you snot-nosed little ingrates, it’s detention time, and we’re watching the Honest Trailer for The Breakfast Club on repeat! Enjoy being locked in the library all day with 5 teenage stereotypes complaining about being stereotyped! Yeah it’s a little dated, but just be glad John Hughes didn’t write it today or it’d be 90 minutes of them slack-jawed scrolling on their phones.

It’s the Honest Trailer for Tron colon Legacy! The rebootquel to the 80’s movie that imagined: “what if the story, was IN the computer?” It’s a cool looking action adventure despite the plot soup, and holy crap that Daft Punk soundtrack rips. It’s too bad it’s considered a flop because it was literally the most expensive movie ever made at the time. I’ve got an idea: try again with Jared Leto!
