A new trailer has just been released for the terrifyingly ultra-violent movie, The Witch.

The blood-soaked horror movie, billed as a "Jason Bourne meets X-Men meets John Wick" action thriller, is directed by South Korean screenwriter and film director Park Hoon-jung.

Signature Entertainment

The film will focus around a young girl, Ja-yoon, who escaped from a government facility during an inexplicable incident 10 years ago and lost all her memory.

Ja-yoon grows up to be a bright high school student and enters a nationally televised audition to win a prize to help her struggling family.

As soon as she appears on TV, strange people start appearing in her life. A man named Nobleman - and others who have been searching for her - soon frantically pursue Ja-yoon.

As her life descends into turmoil she chillingly goes from an innocent girl into - as the promo for the movie describes it - a "cold-blooded knife-wielding super killer". Yikes.

Ja-yoon will be played by South Korean actress Kim Da-mi, and if the trailer is anything to go by, does a great job of being absolutely terrifying.

So far, reviews for the movie have called it "thoroughly entertaining" and said there's plenty of "bone-crunching, blood-spurting action", so maybe it's not one to watch on your own.

There have been a huge slew of horror movies released in recent times, from Halloween, featuring the return of the absolutely terrifying Mike Myers, which made us too scared to ever open our cupboards again, to the bloodcurdling The Hole In The Ground.

Then there was Jake Gyllenhaal's Velvet Buzzsaw, and of course Sandra Bullock's Bird Box.

Then only yesterday, we were delighted to find out that our very favourite 90s horror movie The Craft is getting a 21st-century reboot. Magic.

The Witch is set for release in the UK on April 22nd.
