The most striking example I can think of recently where a trailer was strikingly different from the movie was Suburbicon. The trailer suggests a Coen brothers-style black comedy in which Matt Damon is the hero. That would be the case only if gang rape and racial violence are considered comedic elements (and Matt Damon is the antithesis of a hero in the film).
Definitely something meta about this blog post in that the video is not what I expected.
