Hilar: SNL Spoofs Revenge Flicks with ‘Give Us All Our Daughters Back!’ Trailer

As Taken 2 continues, for better or worse, to dominate the box-office, we are reminded just how prevalent the “Revenge” genre is in our Hollywood diet. And with that, there are a select few actors who have become staples in doing whatever it takes to retrieve their loved ones from crazed criminals, such as: Denzel Washington, Liam Neeson, Mel Gibson and Steven Segal (above), among others. Which is why I LOL’d at SNL’s take this weekend (hosted by Christina Applegate) with the spoof trailer Give Us All Our Daughters Back! More after the break.

As always, Mr. Impressionist Jay Pharoah steals the show with his jaw-droppingly spot-on impression of Denzel Washington. The trailer pokes fun at the noticeable elements in all revenge flicks, such as “with over 45 minutes of threatening phone calls!” It’s pretty funny. Check out the trailer for Give Us All Our Daughters Back! below.

I loved this skit. Hands down, I think I laughed more in this skit than
in any other. It was a perfect representation of many of our action heroes
these days. I couldn’t see the show the other night since I was working late at
DISH. I set my Hopper a while back to automatically record the entire season to
the two terabyte DVR and then watched it the next morning. I am just happy that
I can watch it when I want without having to worry about how much recording
space I’ve got. I am definitely looking forward to seeing Bruno Mars this
weekend!
