Eep.

Someone on Fametracker just posted the teaser poster to the Willy Wonka remake.

And it's seriously wigging me out. Listen, I think the original movie was creepy enough, and never thought it was possible to make it creepier. With Tim Burton you expect eccentricity of course, but this goes right past that and well into the territory of...just...deeply disturbing. The top hat, the stance, the dead-white face and the red lips. Can't explain it, but it's setting me off.

Sorry to barge in this late,

but have you seen the trailer? It's even creepier. It's the definition of creepy. And I never thought I'd be saying this about Johnny Depp.

Haven't seen it, but I've seen a couple of stills.

Further reinforces the notion that I really don't want to see this movie. (Sorry, Johnny.) Maybe it'll be another Scissorhands and the creepiness will turn into something haunting and compelling, but for now it's kind of ::shudder::
