Cape Town – Hollywood’s biggest studios, and smaller ones went head to head at San Diego Comic-Con to debut their upcoming slate of releases. 

Here are five movie trailers you might have missed. 

1. GLASS

M. Night Shyamalan's Glass melds the worlds of Unbreakable and Split, two very different films about three very different superhumans, Samuel L. Jackson's fragile but brilliant Mr. Glass, Bruce Willis' strong and "unbreakable" David Dunn and James McAvoy's Kevin Wendell Crumb, who has 24 personalities. The three actors reprise their roles in Glass.

2. CUT THROAT CITY

The heist film by rapper turned director RZA from the Wu-Tang Clan takes place in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

It centres on four boyhood friends in New Orleans' Lower Ninth Ward who return after Hurricane Katrina to find their homes decimated, no jobs, and no help from FEMA. Reluctantly turning to a local gangster for work, the friends are hired to pull off a daring heist in the heart of the city. But the job goes bad and they find themselves on the run, hunted by two idealistic detectives and a neighbourhood warlord who thinks the friends stole the heist money.

3. SHEBORG

This cult Austrailian horror film does not come from a big studio. 

An alien fugitive crash lands into a local puppy farm and begins turning people into mutated robot killing machines. Two political activists must save earth before it is completely destroyed.

4. BUYBUST

This thriller from the Philippines is a bit under the radar. 

After surviving the slaughter of her entire squad in a drug raid compromised by dirty cops, anti-narcotics special operative Nina Manigan (Anne Curtis), is eager to go head-to-head with the drug cartels that hold a bloody grip on Manila. But when her new mission in the city’s most dangerous slum goes south, the angry civilians turn on her squad. Trapped between a brutal drug gang and hordes of bloodthirsty citizens, their only option is to fight their way out, turning one claustrophobic street at a time into a symphony of apocalyptic violence.
