Happy Madison's "The Short Cut" Trailer

So when I first read that Adam Sandler's production company Happy Madison was making a horror movie I had some high hopes. I thought we might be getting a pretty decent little horror/comedy film that would at least be entertaining. Well unfortunately “The Short Cut” doesn’t look very funny… or scary… or good for that matter.

A shortcut through the woods saved a lot of time getting to school, but no kids growing up in a suburban neighborhood dared to take it. The trail ran within sight of a scary house with an eerie old man who would accost its travelers with an ominous message to stay away. Town legend said he was involved in the disappearances of some kids long ago. Now that some of those same kids are in their late teens, they decide to find out the truth about the old man after they learn he’s still at his game.

I’m a little baffled as to why someone like Adam Sandler would even get into making a horror films but what do I know. From the trailer below my expectations are very low. We’ll find out on September 19th when “The Short Cut” is released... presumably direct to DVD.
