Trailer for 'You're Next'

You’re Next made huge waves on the festival circuit two years ago. It was scooped up by Lionsgate, but after they merged with Summit, there was a bunch of restructuring. The movie ended up getting continually delayed as a result of scheduling shenanigans. But it’s finally hitting theaters later this year, and now a trailer has come out. Here’s the film’s description:

When Crispian Davidson (A.J. Bowen) brings his new girlfriend (Sharni Vinson) along to celebrate his parent’s wedding anniversary, the family’s evening together is shattered when a gang of mysterious killers begin to hunt the family down with brutal precision. Unfortunately for the killers however, one of the victims harbors a secret talent for fighting back.

I’ve heard nothing but good things about the movie, and at this point, it’s probably one of the releases I’m most anticipating this year.

You’re Next comes out August 1st. Put the trailer inside your eyes:

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
