The Rubber Trailer: The Only Killer Tire Movie You'll Never Need to See

You didn't wake up this morning thinking, "Man, if only I could see a trailer for a movie about a tire that kills people by exploding their heads," but sometimes life works in mysterious ways. As such, let's watch the first full-length trailer for Rubber, Quentin Dupieux's grindhouse horror film about the aforementioned sinister tire, and his many victims. Hide the Michelin baby!

No, seriously: Hide that kid. Because Rubber looks like the kind of shlocktastic exploitation film that would fit on a double-feature with Hobo With a Shotgun. That means many Scanners-like head explosions layered on top of the absurd: In this case a killer tire named Robert. Just read that sentence again and tell me you aren't excited to see Rubber. You'll never look at your radials the same way!

VERDICT: Because so much is riding on your tires... like brains! (That doesn't make sense.)
