VIDEO VIEW: ABC's The River


ABC's ''found footage'' TV show, The River, premieres tonight at 9PM. Ahead of that though, here's a video teaser in which lots of people scream at stuff in a trailer clearly created to make the show appeal to ADHD-riddled idiots. It's worth noting that the earlier trailers were much more restrained - and better for it - which is hopefully closer to the tone of the actual show, so don't be put-off by the cheap shocks of the above.

  1. I don't even know where to start on how bad that was. The whole documentary/found-footage thing was intrusive, the 'monster of the week' structure is weak, the addition of the Kzzt camera interference and swelling ambient soundrack breaks any tension, although none of that compares to the ham-fisted presence of Exposition Girl.
