MOTION PICTURE ASSOCIATION ACCREDITED OUTLET

By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com When Maggie Gyllenhaal first introduced The Bride  at CinemaCon last year, the initial marketing suggested something explosive. The teaser carried a wild, almost acid-punk energy, electric and chaotic with a rebellious tone that felt closer to a rock-and-roll spectacle than a classical monster story.
