The Weirdest Superhero Movie Ever Just Got A Wacky Trailer You Must See To Believe
Despite the slew of Marvel and other superhero movies along the way, there really aren't any absurd superhero comedies out there. Enter the French film The Causes of Smoking , which premiered at Cannes last year and was released widely in France in November. This strange film hits theaters and digitally in the US on March 31st, and you can preview it below.
As you can see from the trailer, Smoking Cough is not only a mockery of superheroes in general, but also a very different corner of the genre: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers . The French hero is old, bloodied, and, as the title suggests, smokes more cigarettes than the average criminal.
The film, directed by Quentin Dupuis and dubbed "the absurd head of French outer cinema" by a review that says smoking causes a cough, sees a tobacconist dying in a battle with a powerful monster and ending his misery. , retirement in field chemistry. War. The powers found in tobacco power cause cancer in their worst enemy, and they have a mentor/leader named Chef Didier, a confused mouse puppet voiced by Alain Chabat who seems to have good luck with women.
According to Variety's review, Smoking Coughs features a similar cast of heroes, but this is an anthology film that feels more like a collection of abstract comics than a cohesive narrative.
Given that this is a superhero parody filmed outside the United States, it's hard not to echo the Australian-made parody that first aired on YouTube in 2007, not to mention the bad humor in the trailer for Smoking Causes Cancer . Italian Spiderman (nope, not a typo, a hyphen is missing in the title). The funniest parody is David Ashby as a fat, domino-wearing, alcoholic, biker version of Spider-Man. Like the power of tobacco, the Italian Spiderman smokes like a chimney.
Can we expect an expanded universe from Smoking Causes to Cough when other films like Italy's Spiderman cross paths? Maybe not, but whatever, the movie looks like a good time. At 77 minutes, it's also much shorter than the average superhero blockbuster. You can buy a drink without having to worry about leaving the theater.
Smoking Causes Cough will be released theatrically and digitally in the US on Friday, March 31. Unfortunately for Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, it faces stiff competition as it's release date. No amount of cancer is going to help them beat Chris Pine's D&D debut.
