  Really? I really liked the audio treatment in the trailer here. It’s doing splendid work cranking up the tension, and not something I’d heard before.

  The old recording seems to be this one of Taylor Holmes reading Rudyard Kipling’s poem Boots.

    Yeah fam I thought the audio was excellent. I watched the trailer twice, listened to the Taylor Holmes recording, then watched the trailer again. The cryptic numbers, the audio hiss and the eventual comprehension of a recitation that recalls fallen empires and the daily suffering of marching soldiers, it all blends brilliantly with the preview video being shown.

  I was like “Wow, strong reaction. How bad could it be?” Then I listened to it…

    I appreciate you giving me a shot. It really looks great, and I don’t mean to sound spicy, but that music is like that lighting strobe flash that makes you nauseous. Just one man’s opinion.

      I’m with you. I’m concerned they might have added that audio to the actual movie.
