Notes: I kind of came up with the idea for this on a whim. I'd been attempting to make "intros" for my previous trailer vid (none of which I ended up using, obviously), and I made the beginning that's on this one, and it kinda stuck with me as something I wanted to use for, well, something. And then I got the idea of "evil stalker Castiel" and ran with it. I got the idea early on to make the clips fit together in a dream-like, not-entirely-connected-but-sort-of way, and tried to do that. Don't know if I completely succeeded, but that's kind of what I was going for.
Now, I honestly can't decide whether the plot to this "movie" is "Cas is evil and is after Dean," "a not-real Cas is after Dean in his nightmares," or "Dean is having nightmares in which Cas is evil and trying to kill him." I'll let you decide for yourself how you want to take it.
Either way, it's really a play on "what if Castiel were a bad guy instead of a good guy?" (or maybe "what if Cas had just been yet another serial killer Misha Collins got to play"...? ;))
ALSO, not related to this vid at all, but if anyone's interested in seeing my season four trailer in movie-widescreen (with a few improvements throughout), I've uploaded that here (small) and here (large), and I uploaded it to youtube. I'm not going to give it its own post as I've already posted two different versions, but I figured I'd offer it somewhere, since I think it turned out really well.
As always, please comment if you watch!
