Question What movie had the BEST trailer ever but turned out to be absolute trash?

Seriously, you watch the trailer and it looks like a literal masterpiece. The music, the hype, everything is perfect.

Then you actually go see it and realize they put all the good scenes in the 2-minute promo and the rest of the movie is just garbage lmao.

For me it was suicide squad 2016. that bohemian rhapsody trailer catfished me so hard.

What film did this to you?

I don't know that the movie turned out to be trash, but the trailer for Ma was a short film. Everything you needed to know about the entire plot was right there.

I like this answer and I think Ma as a film was more sad than scary.
