The original teaser trailer I saw gave me SO MANY CHILLS. ugh this movie looks so good and so disturbing on multiple levels. so excited for Janelle. she really is a star and she transforms into whatever role she's playing and I honestly forget it's her on-screen.

This one is much more eerie and confusing; the other just made me think 'time traveeeel!'.

[lone_concertina]

Yeah the teaser made me think time travel but this one seems like The Village but for slavery and that is SO much more terrifying to me

[milkradio]

Looks good. I wonder if Blake & Ryan were hired as location scouts.

Looks beautiful. Have they addressed the obvious Octavia Butler inspiration???

[swearwolves]

Yeh, the shot with the plane slipping in and out of existence make it seem like it might be reality and time unravelling or something. Either way, HEAVILY inspired lol

Yeah that's the first thing I thought about. One of those books I read and never forgot about.

So this is Kindred?
