Trailer: Priest Pits Monk Against Vampires, Bats

This summer’s Everything But the Kitchen Sink award goes to Priest, judging from the film’s new trailer. Star Paul Bettany borrows robes from his monk character in The Da Vinci Code to take on a cowboy-hatted villain dressed almost identically to Clint Eastwood’s Man With No Name in the new clip.

Star Paul Bettany borrows robes from his monk character in The Da Vinci Code to take on a cowboy-hatted villain dressed almost identically to Clint Eastwood’s Man With No Name. Vampires, bats, apocalyptic landscapes, religious hocus-pocus and lots of hellacious screaming round out the clip. And wait ti.l you see the gnarly beast with giant fangs that leaps into view.

Based on Min-Woo Hyung’s graphic novel series and directed by Scott Charles Stewart, Priest opens in 3-D on May 13.
