One of the year’s most anticipated movies, Crimson Peak, has finally dropped its first eerie trailer. From Pacific Rim director Guillermo Del Toro, this gothic horror revolves around the goings-on in an old English mansion during the 19th century.
Starring Mia Wasikowska as aspiring author Edith Cushing, the movie chronicles her experiences after her new husband - played by Tom Hiddleston - whisks her away to his old family abode.
As evidenced in this first teaser it’s not exactly a warm, enticing homestead. Darkness lurks around every corner, in what’s shaping up to be a return to the chilling horror aesthetics Del Toro expertly showcased in Pan’s Labyrinth.
Throw in Jessica Chastain as Edith’s creepy sister-in-law and Charlie Hunnam as a charming suitor keen to remove her from the mansion... and this looks set to be the year’s must-see horror.
Crimson Peak opens on October 16th.
