Focus Features releases new Werwulf trailyr, invites us to "devoureth all mankynde" online
Robert Eggers' horror movie claws into theaters on December 25.
Focus Features has launched a fresh trailer for Robert Eggers' Werwulf, a film that exhibits a blend of whimsy and terrifying intensity, much like the distinct style of Tim Burton. The trailer features a series of intense scenes, showing Aaron Taylor-Johnson's character "Man" undergoing various stages of transformation, while Lily-Rose Depp's "Woman" watches in terror.
The haunting voice of Willem Dafoe weaves through the chilling visuals, creating a dense and ominous atmosphere. In addition to the trailer, Focus Features has unveiled a unique online experience called DevourethAllMankynde.com, an "alternate reality game" that is activated every full moon between September and November. This game culminates in a mysterious prize for those who complete all three moons by discovering and deciphering hidden signs on various digital platforms.
Participants must complete the task within 24 hours of each full moon, adding a sense of urgency and competition to the experience. To participate, an email address is required, as is typical for most online endeavors of this nature. Werwulf will be released in theaters on Christmas Day.
