Cursed Trailer Review: 4 Ups & 1 Down

1. It Shows Quite A Lot

Cursed's original teaser promo outlined some of the plot, so it was always a safe bet that its first proper full-length trailer was going to give us a little bit more than that. It did that and, for the most part, it succeeded in outlining the plot, the hero, the villain, some of the supporting characters, the romance and both the internal and external conflict. Escalated quickly, didn't it?

There is no denying that the trailer features some awe-inspiring footage, but surely some of that awe-inspiring footage would have been even more captivating had we witnessed it in the context it was meant to be viewed in?
