Peacock launched a live-action Twisted Metal trailer today that provides a much clearer glimpse of the upcoming series than its teaser from earlier this year. Set to the beat of DMX’s “Party Up (Up In Here),” the campy clip has high-speed chases, guns and carjackings along with ample wisecracks and one maniacal clown — everything you’d expect from a live-action adaptation of the over-the-top franchise. The two-minute trailer begins with star Anthony Mackie (The Falcon and The Winter Soldier) setting the tone as…

An intentionally over-the-top and insanely excessive remake of a cult favorite horror doesn’t sound as though it’s got the potential to become a critical darling and a box office sensation, but the best thing about Piranha 3D by far is that everyone involved completely understands the assignment.
