This has been a good week for horror movie trailers, with the teaser for This Is Not a Test dropping Wednesday and Thursday’s release of a first look at the aptly-named Dreadful with Sophie Turner and Kit Harington, and an expanded glimpse of Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride starring Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale.

Dreadful reunites the Stark siblings from Game of Thrones as lovers in medieval times. The official description reads, “Set in medieval England, Anne (Turner) and her domineering mother-in-law Morwen (Marcia Gay Harden) struggle to survive on the outskirts of society. But when Jago (Harington), a man from Anne’s past returns from war, a curse begins to take shape through a mysterious knight and threatens to destroy them all.

In the trailer we see that Anne’s husband died in a battle in England’s long-running Wars of the Roses, and when she and Jago fall for each other, Anne finds herself with a monster-in-law problem. We watch her ruthlessly kill a wandering monk, to Anne’s horror.

But Morwen doesn’t react well when Anne moves on to a new relationship with Jago. “You know I’d die without you,” Morwen tells Anne. “Stay with me and you’ll have nothing to fear.” From the looks of it, Anne and Jago have much to fear.

The Dreadful is written and directed by Natasha Kermani and creeps into theaters on February 20th.

In a new, longer look at The Bride!, we see Jessie Buckley, who’s up for numerous awards this season for her work as Shakespeare’s muse in Hamnet, bringing a modern, even punk rock sensibility to 1930s Chicago.

In the exclamation mark-laden logline for The Bride!, “a lonely Frankenstein (Christian Bale) travels to 1930s Chicago to ask groundbreaking scientist Dr. Euphronious (Annette Bening) to create a companion for him. The two revive a murdered young woman and The Bride (Buckley) is born. What ensues is beyond what either of them imagined: Murder! Possession! A wild and radical cultural movement! And outlaw lovers in a wild and combustible romance!”

As we see in the trailer, Gyllenhaal’s take on the Bride of Frankenstein story not only includes a raucous (and anachronistic) choreographed dance number to Florence and the Machine, the story is told from the Bride’s point of view, not that of her maker or her would-be husband. The movie is set in the illicit world of gangland Chicago.

The Bride! also stars Peter Sarsgaard, Jake Gyllenhaal and Penélope Cruz. Maggie Gyllenhaal directs from her own screenplay.
