To kick off their Comic-Con International: San Diego 2015 panel, Fox started out with a second trailer for the second Maze Runner film, Scorch Trials. While we wait for the trailer itself to come along, here’s a description of the footage from our man inside Hall H.
Thomas and Brenda are in a tunnel using flashlights to illuminate graffitied walls as they walk through the murky floors. Eerie music accompanies the scene. He looks for Brenda. She calls him over to look a a wall covered in vines. They’re in a sewage pipe. A shriek comes from one of the pipes and a rat emerges to their relief. It’s badly cut and scurries away only to be snatched up by what looks like a zombie and eaten as the zombie breaks free of the vines constraining it. They look like the creatures from I Am Legend but sound like the Clickers from The Last of Us. A horde chases them and shrieks as Thomas and Brenda sprint away. The running continues as the two arrive at a ledge out of nowhere. A building is collapsed and leaning on another and the creatures are closing in.
