''The Horribly Slow Murderer With the Extremely Inefficient Weapon'' started as a parody trailer that pokes fun at the horror genre, particularly the "TorturePorn" movies like ''Franchise/{{Saw}}'' and ''Film/{{Hostel}}'', which focused on, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin well, see the title]]. It stars Paul Clemens as a man who is suddenly attacked by a supernatural being (Brian Rohan) for a (possibly imagined) slight against the Powers That Be. This attack is made with a normal spoon, the bowl struck sharply against the target's body, and is seldom ceased. The victim is sent spiraling past the brink of insanity from the constant flogging, and resorts to continually, and comedically, extreme lengths to get rid of his tormentor, all ending in failure, and in some cases even [[HoistByHisOwnPetard backfiring immensely]].

* {{Glamor}}: The Ginosaji has some sort of supernatural effect that prevents it from being witnessed by anyone other than its victim. Jack tries to photograph it but it comes out as a blurry picture, Jack runs across a crowded beach with no one noticing the Ginosaji chasing him, and a piece of art early on in the second trailer has the Ginosaji attacking someone to an indifferent crowd.

* TookALevelInBadass: Near the start of the trailer, Jack is able to gun down the Ginosaji with a handgun, if only momentarily. Later on, it's able to shrug off point-blank assault rifle fire, a direct hit from an RPG, and small minefield rigged to blow. Its glamor also improves, as it initially only attacked Jack when he was alone, but later on it's chasing him in broad daylight across a crowded beach with no one noticing.
