10 Films You Only Ever Remember Seeing The Trailer For

5. Cooties

From the creators of Saw and Glee (yes, what a combo!) came the 2015 comedy horror Cooties, starring Elijah Wood as an author returning to his home town to teach in an elementary school. Not long after joining, the kids all turn into zombies after a strange reaction to the school chicken nuggets, thus forcing the teachers to fight back against them. Pre warning: you'll never want to eat nuggets again.

The trailer first premiered at the Sundance festival and again cycled social media platforms to gain a high amount of views. However, the movie's theatrical release was less than successful. After having some last minute delays in the editing process which included changing the ending, the film was only released in the cinemas for a limited time before being available exclusively within on demand platforms.

The cult following that started from the release of the trailer soon died down and became one of the writers' lesser successful movies compared to the Jigsaw franchise. The overall plot and humour of the film is worth the watch however - if you can get your hands on it.
