Video Licks: SNL shows off Wes Anderson’s dark side

It may have been the first time Ed Norton was hosting Saturday Night Live but it certainly didn’t show. He breezed through the skits like he’d been a part of the cast for years. The weekend’s skits were some of best I’d seen in a long time but my favorite was the trailer for The Midnight Coterie of Sinister Intruders. In this trailer Wes Anderson branches out into the horror genre retaining all those directorial characteristics we’ve come to adore in the quirky film maker. We sure hope Anderson watched this hilarious nod to his flicks. We could use quirky new horror film. Heck, Ed Norton could play Owen Wilson and himself.
