Danish filmmaker Lars von Trier, best known for his Dogme 95 films, is now exploring the horror genre with his upcoming Antichrist. It stars Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg as a couple who go on a retreat in the woods and descend into fear. It looks disturbing as hell and was shot by recent Oscar-winning cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle. The trailer recalls early Dario Argento with its surreal imagery, unsettling sounds, and widescreen nightmares. It's scheduled to appear at Cannes in May where I'm sure it will get a mixed reaction like most art house/horror films.
