Brian De Palma's latest film The Black Dahlia finally has a trailer online. The story is adapted from the James Ellroy novel set in the 1940's when the real life brutal murder of Elizabeth Short occurred. This story tells the tale of the two cops who head the investigation and uncover corruption and conspiracy.

The trailer is over at Yahoo Movies through dTheatre [QT:S:M:L:FS].

Luckily they stop short of the picture I linked to the other day, and even without any hint of that the trailer is superbly strong. It looks fantastic. Rich and deep with bags of atmosphere and looks, it's almost dripping with style. I really am excited about this film.

The victim has been cut in half, all organs removed, blood drained from the body, and the mouth sliced ear to ear...

Wow, very strong stuff and the rest of the trailer holds it's head up high to that level of power. Definitely worth watching.
