A teaser trailer for a new body horror flick Together has been released – and fans think it’s set to be the ‘best horror of the year’.

Together’s trailer has been released and stars real-life married couple Dave Franco and Alison Brie, and is directed by Michael Shanks.

The synopsis of the film reads: ‘After moving to the countryside, a supernatural encounter starts to transform a couple’s love, their lives, and their flesh,’ and the trailer does it’s utmost to horrify.

The teaser begins like a rom-com with Dave’s character Tim lifting up Alison’s character Millie in a warm embrace, and the pair holding hands – but things slowly get more creepy.

Fraky shots show Tim convulsing in the shower and pulling hair out his mouth, while Millie is shown shaking and moving her body in a bizarre fashion.

The final end shot shows a disturbing scene as Tim and Millie’s eyeballs get close and their eyelashes appear to extend into one another.

After premiering at Sundance, the film has received rave reviews from critics and a 100% ranking on Rotten Tomatoes.

‘In “Together,” Michael Shanks takes the tension to extreme, often jaw-dropping lengths, with Brie and Franco committing every ounce of their being to this wild, acid-trip of a film,’ said Nate Adams for The Only Critic.

Sharai Bohannon said for Horror Movie Blog: ‘[Together] gets right into the messiness of relationships and takes it some wild body horror places. The film is also a bonkers playground for Brie to remind people she has a well of (often underutilized) talent.’

For The Hollywood Reporter, David Rooney said: ‘Director Shanks is in his devilishly playful element, while Brie and Franco throw themselves full force into a scenario that keeps getting weirder.’
