Watch Four Freaky New Clips From Upcoming Horror ‘Mama’

Mama looks freaky as hell, and I can’t wait for it to terrify me.

The Guillermo Del Toro produced horror hits theatres on January 18th, and everything we’ve seen so far points to this one being something special.

Del Toro of course, is no stranger to horror. He last produced the promising though flawed Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark in 2010, and the wonderfully horrific The Orphanage in 2007 (the director of which would go on to craft last year’s The Impossible, one of the most enjoyable films of the year).

Universal has just released four new clips as part of the film’s marketing push. Even without context, each clip is extremely creepy and effective. Check them out below!

Haven’t seen the trailer? Don’t fret, it’s right here! Are you planning to visit Mama anytime soon?

Five years ago, sisters Victoria and Lilly vanished from their suburban neighborhood without a trace.  Since then, their Uncle Lucas (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and his girlfriend, Annabel (Jessica Chastain), have been madly searching for them.  But when, incredibly, the kids are found alive in a decrepit cabin, the couple wonders if the girls are the only guests they have welcomed into their home.

As Annabel tries to introduce the children to a normal life, she grows convinced of an evil presence in their house.  Are the sisters experiencing traumatic stress, or is a ghost coming to visit them?  How did the broken girls survive those years all alone?  As she answers these disturbing questions, the new mother will find that the whispers she hears at bedtime are coming from the lips of a deadly presence.
