The most epic movie trailer ever just dropped, and we’re not even kidding, it’s about a teacher who kidnaps a kid and locks them in her home, because, you know, that’s exactly what every parent wants to see in a movie 🤣. The movie, titled “Bad Apples”, is a comedy-thriller (because who doesn’t love a good laugh while watching a hostage situation 🤪) that follows the story of Maria, a primary school teacher who’s just trying to do her job, but one little “bad apple” is ruining everything for her. We mean, who hasn’t been there, right? 😂
So, Maria makes a few (dozen) bad decisions, and the next thing you know, she’s got a 10-year-old locked in her house, and she’s all like “oh no, what have I done? 😱”. But, as it turns out, the kid’s behavior was actually the reason the whole class was failing, and now that they’re gone, everyone’s thriving 🤩. We’re not saying that’s a great reason to kidnap someone, but hey, desperate times call for desperate measures, right? 🙄
The movie is directed by the super talented Jonatan Etzler, and it stars an amazing cast, including Saoirse Ronan, Eddie Waller, Nia Brown, Jacob Anderson, Rakie Ayola, Robert Emms, and Sean Gilder. We’re not sure what’s more impressive, the cast or the fact that the director managed to convince them all to be in a movie about a teacher who kidnaps a student 🤷♀️.
You can watch the trailer for “Bad Apples” above, and if you’re feeling adventurous, you can even read our review of the movie here. But let’s be real, who needs a review when you’ve got a trailer that’s just begging to be watched 📺?
“Bad Apples” will be hitting UK and US cinemas on 18th September 2026, so mark your calendars, folks 📅. It’s going to be a wild ride, and we’re not just talking about the movie 🎢. We’re talking about the conversations you’ll have with your friends and family after watching it, like “can you believe she kidnapped that kid? 😲” or “I know, right? I would’ve done the same thing 🙅♀️”.
Anyway, we hope you enjoy the movie, and don’t forget to bring your sense of humor (and a few snacks, because let’s be real, you’re going to need them 🍿).
Finn McFrame, celebrated satirical mastermind and self-proclaimed “Emperor of Irony,” started his illustrious career as a cinematographer, where his expertise in capturing every single frame of a squirrel stealing a baguette earned him accolades at obscure film festivals.
Born in the glamorous town of Boring, Oregon, Finn grew up with dreams of being a Hollywood director until he realized that satire, not cinema, was his true calling—or at least the one that let him sleep until noon.
