Incompetent Trailer Hilarity: Hangar Rats

Every once in a while, a trailer comes along that is so technically and aesthetically inept that all the viewer can do is sit back and marvel at the sheer pokiness of it all. Enter Hangar Rats, a low-budget film about… actually, we don’t know what the hell it’s about since there’s absolutely no mention of a plot whatsoever in the trailer. But who needs such technicalities as a storyline to draw in potential viewers when you have shots of guys standing around, stock footage of military helicopters, music mixed so loud that it’s impossible to hear dialogue, overlapping audio, directors calling “action” at the beginning of a shot, and Fred ‘the D.O.M.’ shooting a skunk-eye that possesses the city-leveling power of Godzilla’s atomic breath. All of that plus a mysterious disembodied scream, a joke with a missing punchline, and thirty seconds of black on the backside makes the trailer for Hangar Rats a head-scratcher that’s sure to cause excessive scalp bleeding.

First there was Telephone Book: The Movie, now there’s Hangar Rats…
