Summon the Elder Gods, for there's a new Lovecraft Country trailer

There’s monsters galore in the new trailer for Lovecraft Country, from sweaty, leering cops to slimy, tentacled beasts. And, in this vision of Matt Ruff’s 1950s milieu, they’re equally as dangerous. That much is clear in this new clip, which highlights the HBO adaptation’s emphasis on family, race, and cosmic horror.

Underground’s Misha Green and Get Out and Us director Jordan Peele are behind the 10-episode series, which follows a sci-fi-loving Black man (Jonathan Majors) as he travels from the South Side of Chicago to rural Massachusetts in search of his missing father, Montrose (Michael K. Williams). Joining him on this journey is his Uncle George (Courtney B. Vance), and a friend, Letitia (Jurnee Smollett), who have plenty of their own ghosts with which to contend.
