US Trailer For AMERICAN PSYCHO Director's THE MOTH DIARIES

After a lengthy absence from the big screen, American Psycho writer-director Mary Harron returns with The Moth Diaries - her first feature since 2005 effort The Notorious Bettie Page.

Acclaimed director Mary Harron (AMERICAN PSYCHO, THE NOTORIOUS BETTIE PAGE) returns with the chilling story of Rebecca (Sarah Bolger), a young girl who, haunted by her father's suicide, enrolls in an elite boarding school for girls. Before long, Rebecca's  friendship with the popular Lucy (Sarah Gadon) is shattered by the arrival of a dark and mysterious new student named Ernessa (Lily Cole). Lucy  falls under Ernessa's spell and becomes emotionally and physically consumed by her glamorous new friend. Rebecca, whose overtures of concern are rejected by Lucy, finds herself lost and confused. She begins to develop a crush on her handsome English teacher, Mr. Davies (Scott Speedman) and immerses herself in the Gothic vampire novel Carilla for his class. Rebecca starts to suspect that Ernessa is a vampire, but, despite the suspicious deaths that begin to occur, her fears are treated as simple girlish jealousy. As the bodies of young girls pile up and the line between reality and the supernatural starts to blur,  Rebecca decides to take matters into her own hands and get rid of Ernessa. Who can say what is real and what is unreal to the heart consumed by passion and a mind afire with loss? Based on the bestselling novel by Rachel Klein, THE MOTH DIARIES is a harrowing story of the anxieties, lusts and fears of adolescence.

Keep an eye on star Sarah Gadon in this one ... she's been winning acclaim for the part and with roles in David Cronenberg's A Dangerous Method and Cosmopolis and son Brandon Cronenberg's Antiviral she is clearly a star on the rise.

US distributors IFC have just released their trailer for the film which you can find below. The Moth Diaries can be seen on IFC in Theaters Video on Demand as well as digital outlets SundanceNOW, iTunes, Amazon Streaming and XBOX Zune starting March 20th, before it hits select theaters on April 20th.
