This trailer is gloom and doom and dark and bloody.

With fanboy/fangirl fave Aaron TJ in the title role, and Russell Crowe playing the father who taught him violence, this should be quite the holiday…treat.

Ariana DuBose is Calypso, Alessandro Nivola is the heavy.

“Venom” and “Deadpool” without the laughs?

Has enough of a “Wolverine” vibe — snow and slaughter, a Russian prison etc. — to pique the curiosity.
