Apparently this is the second poster for Lars Von Trier’s psychological horror-in-the-woods film, “Antichrist,” but the first one doesn’t look much different from the first bare-ass photo unveiled a few weeks ago.
This one is a bit heavier on the sure-to-be weird erotic and sexual nature of the film (Erotica horror sans the typical schlock whenever regular horror tries to inject sex into the picture? Sounds like an interesting take). Academy Award-winning cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle (“Slumdog Millionaire”) has shot the film and what we’ve seen so far looks appropriately creepy.
Synopsis: A therapist attempts to treat his wife after the loss of their own child by retreating into a cabin in the woods, where they learn that their child might be tangentially related to the coming of the Antichrist.
The film stars Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg as the couple in question and the film makes its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on Monday, May 18. [via Horror Movies]
