However, I’m gonna cut the director some slack, cause he’s probably out of breath from (lightly) exercising, getting in shape to run around the country and plug his new movie into any theater that’ll screen it. Not-so-Silent Bob’s intro notwithstanding, the teaser itself is very tense and effective. You can see a few bits of John Goodman the way he looks in my “Roseanne” nightmares – stern and viewed through a shaky lens. The film also stars Kevin Pollack and Stephen Root.

The Red State tour starts March 5th. (Cinema Blend, Coopersdell.com)
