The highly anticipated upcoming slasher In a Violent Nature has released yet another teaser trailer – and this one is the most terrifying yet.
The new 30-second-long teaser opens with the killer, who is actually a resurrected corpse, traipsing around the woods carrying an axe looking for more victims. Other moments show someone stuck in a bear trap, another trapped in some kind of mechanical saw, and one victim looking positively petrified as the killer reaches his bloody decomposing hand out for his face. Watch the full clip below.
