Previews: Deepwater Horizon Featurette, Blair Witch, More!

Plenty to gaze upon in this week’s preview of coming attractions, including a Deepwater Horizon Featurette, the latest Blair Witch trailer and more…

Blair Witch has good pedigree; it is produced by the original film’s writer-directors, and directed by Adam Wingard.
