Roadside Attractions has released an official green band movie trailer for Derrick Comedy’s Mystery Team , the comedy sensation of this year’s Sundance Film Festival. Cinematical described it as “Encyclopedia Brown meets Napoleon Dynamite with a pinch of Ace Ventura” and CinemaBlend called it “the Rocky Horror Picture Show of mystery movies.” Film School Rejects called it “perfect comedy for the internet generation.” And we said it is ” funnier and more original than 99% of the comedies Hollywood releases now-a-days.” Watch the new trailer after the jump!

The film doesn’t hit theaters until Fall 2009, but as you have probably heard, there is going to be a sneak preview screening in San Diego during Comic-Con. Roadside has given us 12 single tickets to give away to /Film readers who will be in attendance at the con.

The screening is going to take place on Thursday, July 23rd at 8:00pm at Horton Plaza. Please only enter the contest if you’re going to be in San Diego and will be able to attend the screening. How do you enter? Send us an e-mail at slashfilm@gmail.com telling us why you should be invited to the special Mystery Team screening. Please include your full name and phone number. We will privately notify winners on Tuesday night by e-mail


  • Nowhere near as well put together as the sundance trailer, but i'm still looking forward to this. The great song from the first trailer has been replaced by one much less punchy...
  • You also have to consider that this trailer had to get past the MPAA with a PG (ie Green band) rating. I would assume its hard to cut a trailer like that out of an r-rated comedy like this.

    Film looks like it could be cool as long as it isn't too crude
  • Hmmm....This has cult classic written all over it. Can't wait to see it!
  • mozthagreat
    agreed. cant wait
  • Ricky
    yeah I already like it more then everybody else.
  • This trailer captures the essence of the film (more so than the Sundance trailer), because it sucks.

    Saw this at Sundance and I really didn't like it. The performances were far too over-the-top, and the quality of the cinematography varied from scene to scene. I know that it's just an indy comedy, but now that it's getting a wide release, it deserves to get shit on.

    Yikes! Buzzkill!
  • don't know if i'll like it or not. but it's looking very 'Hot Rod'

    This movie won't be for everyone, but I think I'll have a few laughs watching it. I'm really looking forward to seeing this one.
