Autumn Film Trailers By: Andrew Moran This autumn looks to be a dandy with many great suspense films coming out and the beginning of Oscar season, however we have had one Oscar performance with Angelina Jolie’s character in ‘A Mighty Heart’. A lot of the films listed below have teaser trailers so we will try to update as quickly and efficiently as we can. I would like to thank IMDB for the plot synopsis. This autumn be sure to watch out for The Golden Age, a sequel to 1999’s Elizabeth. Also for fans of the horror genre Saw IV will be making its way to the theaters this October. * Highly Anticipated Picture
