Focus Features has released a new trailer for Robert Eggers\u2019 Werwulf, and while it\u2019s difficult to shake the feeling that this film looks increasingly like peak Tim Burton with all the whimsy swapped out for belligerent terror, it\u2019s difficult to deny the primal oomph Eggers has put into it. A montage of ferocious images finds Aaron Taylor-Johnson\u2019s \u201cMan\u201d in various stages of transformation while Lily-Rose Depp, as \u201cWoman\u201d, looks on in horror, and through it all, Willem Dafoe\u2019s distorted voice crackles over all the desolate, doomy imagery. Truly, a thundering, senses-assaulting trailer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And for those who want more interactivity with their Werwulf experience\u2014and considering how off-puttingly drooly and profane it\u2019s been so far, how could you not\u2014Focus has launched DevourethAllMankynde.com<\/a>, an \u201calternate reality game\u201d that\u2019s synced to every full moon cosmically set in place between September and November, culminating in \u201ca mysterious prize for those who complete all three moons each full moon.\u201d As to what the hell \u201ccomplete all three moons each full moon\u201d means, Focus elucidates: \u201cFans will need to seek out a hidden \u201csign\u201d on various digital platforms and decipher it back into the site to fulfill the moon. The catch is, you only get 24 hours each full moon to search for the sign before it disappears, so you\u2019ll need to work fast to find it.\u201d At any rate, Focus requires an email address for this arcane ritual, as is the case with most of the dark, dread things we do online.\u00a0<\/p>\n
