10 Recent Movie Trailers That Gave Too Much Away

3. Don't Breathe 2

If the trailer for Don't Breathe 2 is to be taken at face value, it's going to attempt the bold feat of turning the original film's antagonist - a blind man (Stephen Lang) who kidnapped and raped a young woman - into some sort of twisted anti-hero.

It appears that the blind man will be tasked with fending off another group of attackers, who this time have their sights set on a young girl, Phoenix (Madelyn Grace), who seems to be in his care.

While it is admittedly possible - and even quite likely - that the trailer is misleading audiences and the "attackers" are actually trying to rescue Phoenix from the blind man's clutches, the three-minute trailer still gives away the deaths of almost a half-dozen assailants.

Those scenes will as a result be entirely tension-free when we finally sit down to watch the film, the outcome needlessly given away. Fingers crossed there's a far larger gang of "villains" coming the blind man's way than the mere ones we glimpse in the trailer.
