Here’s the new red-band trailer for the upcoming Netflix horror series Hemlock Grove. (It’s mildly NSFW.) The show will be on Netflix on Friday, but in the meantime, this trailer answers several questions.
- Does it look sort of like True Blood? A little! And not just aesthetically/erotically: That’s Bill Skarsgård, brother of Alexander Skarsgård, in one of the lead roles. (That’s him saying “You gotta be fucking kidding me” at the end.)
- Does it look sort of like American Horror Story? A little! And not just because Bill Skarsgård looks sort of like Kit from AHS. (And Sebastian from The Carrie Diaries. You have a familiar-seeming face, Bill Skarsgård!)
- Is there barfing? Yes.
- Blow jobs? Sorta.
- Nazis? Looks like it?
- Werewolves? Yes.
- People eating bloodworms? Yes.
- Someone with all-black eyes, like that snake lady in the X Files episode “Die Hand Die Verletzt”? Yes.
- Butts? Implied butts.
- Cloaks? Yes.
- Is “something out there”? Yes.
