Flowers in the Attic (2010) Remake - Fake Fan Trailer

When I was about 11 or 12, me and my sister (two years younger) stumbled upon an old 80s movie at the MGM channel. The movie was called Flowers in the Attic. By the time the movie reached its end, I was stunned and amazed. This was true shocker. How can any parent do such a thing to its brood? For the rest of the day, because of the movie, I couldnt see my mother or my father in the same loving eye as I did before because I was doubtful. I didnt hold any kind of trust to them. What if my mother was actually, behind her sugary and gentle surface, as evil as the woman named Corrine in the movie? Hopefully, this lasted for only one day and the next day I was healed from those thoughts of distrust and mistrust.

Flowers in the Attic, until this day, has been one my favorite shocker movies. I read on the Internet that many, many people hated the movie because it wasnt at all like the book it was based upon. I said to my self That movie was bad? How can this be? Incidentally, I discovered one of my aunts had copies of Flowers in the Attic and If There Be Thorns. Borrowing it from her, I read it and indeed, I found the book more amusing than the movie (but still I loved the movie).

Both book and film adaptation are now some of my favorites out of my 15 years of age, and now that I heard Andrew Neiderman has written the screenplay for a second and more faithful- adaptation and is waiting for the green light of MGM, I couldnt be more exited!

In the meantime, I decided to make a FAN trailer of the remake. I spent 16 of July collecting material (clips from various movies) and gathering ideas, on 17 I made the trailer and on 18-19 I made some corrections. I hope you like it.

About the actors/actresses selected for the roles of the Dresden Dolls I dont actually favor the actors/actresses presented in the trailer (I basically desire unknowns for the roles of the Dollanganger children in the remake, not the so-called teeny-boppers) but since I couldnt find justifying clips other than the actors/actresses shown in the trailer, please dont get angry. I know that today that some of those actors/actresses are too old for the parts I gave them in the trailer, I didnt have a second chance. However, they look the right age in the trailer because I used material from movies in which they were younger at the time.


*
My material: clips from the movies: -

The Others (2001)
Rebecca (1997 TV Movie)
Newcastle (2008)
Taken (TV series)
Across the Universe (2007)
The Mist (2007)
Venus (2006)

Music used: The marvelous Home Sweet Home theme by Marco Beltrami for the music score of Scream 3. Towards the end it switches to the poignant title theme from Psycho II by Jerry Goldsmith.

I also want to thank the following Youtube users for providing me video material material without knowing it! (If you want I can post the link for those vids):

Noreeley for The Music Box,
Ballettfan for Ballerina practicing routine and
Vodeotv for Ballerina

I wish I could have made my trailer better using narration and using clips of actually unknown talented actors for the Dollanganger children, as I hope for the remake to have unknowns.


Here is my preference cast for the Dollanganger Series.

The Grandmother Kathleen Turner or Diana Rigg
Corrine Foxworth Nicole Kidman or Naomi Watts
John Amos Christopher Lee or Terence Stamp
The Grandfather Peter OToole or Christopher Plummer or Michael Caine
Cathy (adult) Naomi Watts
Christopher Jr. (aged 54) Michael Biehn
Dr. Paul Sheffield Michael Douglas
Jory (adult) Hugh Dancy
Bart Jr. (adult) Rick Hearst
Joel Foxworth (old) Ian McKellen or Donald Sutherland
Madame Marisha Vanessa Redgrave (shes experienced in ballet)
Mrs. Bertha Simpson (bit part) Vera Miles

This is just what I've been hopeing for.... a "Flowers in the Attic" remake, thank you thank you thank you, Finally! But, Cory and Carry are twins... so why is it that from this preview, the actor playing Cory looks much older than the actress playing Carry? I was praying that this time around, the actors(kids) would all look as describe from the book.

[DeaneShafortock]

@alottaUtube Don't worry, It's a FAKE trailer. I used clips from different movies to edit this together. As for the remake, we can only hope it's like the book...

[ImPoisonBeCareful]

i think scarlett johannson would be great as cathy ...i love chris <3

[LalitaDeLaCruz]

You did an excellent job with this, You should def. do trailers as a profession you would be excellent.!!! I really hope they decide to do a FITA remake that would be super!!!

[MayokoLove]

Everyone always uses Nicole Kidman, Elle Fanning, and Lachlan Buchanan....it must all mean something....well, I could only hope it does haha

[Catherinedoll22]

btw the guy u picked up to be chris was perfect. just as i imagined him.

[Catherinedoll22]

i really hope they make a flowers in the attic remake. i dint like the movie but the book was great so i hope somebody does tflowers in the attic into a movie again and captures the horror which was in the book.

[MadLaceann]

Wow, that is so weird... I always imagined Corrine as Nicole Kidman (Because of "the Others") and I imagined Chris just like that. Though in my mind, Cathy was as she was in the movie. (The movies SUCKED in comparison to the book, unfortunately) Good job!

[emelyDEG]

i have the entire series.. my favorite books EVER<3 :) BTW this is really good :D

itd be awesome if they made a damn remake!

[emelyDEG]

i have the entire series.. my favorite books EVER<3 :)

[CrimsOnyx23]

There were rumors that they are really making a remake, which would be nice since the 1987 version left out so much... not that I'm dogging the 1987 film.. I love it, but a remake would be awesome!

[salyexley1978]

sadly, in some way or another, the ppl who make the films rarely go by the book, so to speak, they always leave stuff out, add stuff, no1 is ever gonna be satisfied, we all have our own minds eye how stuff should look from a book and in some cases the producers want actors that will bring in money even if they look nothing like character, rarely watch films from books, i cannot enjoy them when i see they have taken chunks out..

[mollosolan]

Will there be like a real remake? Hope so...

[butterflybich98]

wwow u got a lot to say dnt u....

[Hermione1983]

[upcycle]

Nicole Kidman would make a good evil mother.

[MsGenny76]

i think stockard channing could pull of the grandmother roll

[MsGenny76]

just saw this too... loved it as well..the one thing every remake idealist seems to agree on is that nicole kidman is the ideal corrine... these are my favorite books of all time and i would agree she has the talent to pull off the many face of corrine and still look beautiful doing it

[TheNpcsim]

@TalamascaBound Oh, ok XDDDDD Apperantly I need to re-read the book :P

[TalamascaBound]

@TheNpcsim hahaha, nooooo, but he had a cuddly fat black housekeeper named Henny who couldnt talk. :)

[TheNpcsim]

@tarathetarantula I can't find any of the books anywhere except for Petals on the wind T.T

[TheNpcsim]

You said Michael Douglas for Paul Sheffield, but wasn't he black?

[tarathetarantula]

I am so enchanted by this tragic story. I am currently reading "seeds of yesterday" I love love love flowers in the attic.

[vrae12345]

Sofia Coppola would rock this movie out of our orbit. I wish this was real. Awesome job

[thetwistedstuff]

You know the new Jane Eyre film that came out this year? The style/editing and font felt SO similar to this. I thought that was so cool. Go take a look and you'll see what I mean.
