Pan's Labyrinth trailer

The trailer for Guillermo del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth has been released, and it's creepy as hell. The film is in Spanish and is described by the director as: the story of a young girl that travels with her mother and adoptive father to a rural area up North in Spain, 1944. After Franco's victory. The girl lives in an imaginary world of her own creation and faces the real world with much chagrin. Post-war Fascist repression is at its height in rural Spain and the girl must come to terms with that through a fable of her own.

The description sounds a lot less scary than the trailer looks. Then again, maybe a man with an eye growing out of his hand isn't supposed to be scary.
