The first full-length trailer for Victorian Psycho<\/a> dropped today, and it\u2019s even more intense than the teaser trailer we saw back in May. No need for DoestheDogDie.com<\/a> this time, folks\u2014Maika Monroe\u2019s off-kilter and almost certainly wildly unqualified Victorian nanny Winifred Notty straight-up kills a deer right in the trailer. She also tells a child there\u2019s a demon named Fred living inside her, so the deer thing might not be her biggest issue.<\/p>\n

Check out the new trailer below.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the Year of our Lord 1858, an unusual governess named Winifred Notty arrives at the gothic manor known as Ensor House. Winifred\u2019s responsibilities include teaching the children table manners and educating them about their family history\u2014all whilst hiding her own psychopathic tendencies. But as staff members begin disappearing, the owners of the estate start to wonder if there may be something amiss with their new governess\u2026\u201d reads the film\u2019s description. \u201cVictorian Psycho invites us into the mind of a psychopath\u2014trapped in a world she cannot control, living on the border between insurrection and madness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Early reviews for the film were mixed<\/a>, with some critics enjoying its campy quality and others feeling like it never finds the right balance between horror and comedy. The trailer, at least, is doing a good job of selling a delightfully unhinged vibe.<\/p>\n

Victorian Psycho is directed by Zachary Wigon and stars Ruth Wilson, Jason Isaacs, and Thomasin McKenzie alongside Monroe. It\u2019s based on the novel of the same name by Virginia Feito, who also wrote the screenplay. It opens in theaters on September 25.<\/p>\n
