Fake trailer reimagines Paperboy as a bloody ‘80s horror film

by John Funk

A new fan-made fake trailer transposes classic arcade hit Paperboy into a low-budget, bloody grindhouse film straight out of 1985.

Once upon a time, the Paperboy delivered newspapers; he’s since grown up and sworn off the old paper route. But when a corrupt newspaper magnate begins killing off paperboys left and right, the Paperboy loads up to take the streets back.

The fake trailer for Paperboy 3: The Hard Way is the work of filmmaker Isaac Williams.
