Watch a new teaser trailer for Squid Game season 2 on Netflix!

Squid Game, the biggest show to ever air on Netflix, is returning for a second season. Netflix has dropped a new teaser trailer, above, which features Gong Yoo's mysterious salesman getting ready for a day of work tempting indebted, down-on-their-luck workaday stiffs into playing a game in the hopes of making some money. The hope is that eventually they'll participate in the Squid Games, an elaborate tournament where poor people put their lives on the line for the entertainment of a group of voyeuristic billionaires, with one of them walking away with a grand prize at the end. The others will all die.

Squid Game blew all the way up when the first season dropped in 2021; not only is a well-acted, well-written thriller, but it strikes a chord in a world where the divide between the uber-rich and the rest of humanity keeps widening. The teaser trailer doesn't give away much — we don't see our hero Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) at all — but it's enough to get me excited. Besides, we saw Seong Gi-hun in the previous teaser that Netflix dropped during Geeked Week

Squid Game season 2 premiere on December 26. Merry Christmas. I'm sure we'll get a proper trailer before then. In the meanwhile, check out a new trailer for director Robert Eggers' remake of Nosferatu, the original vampire movie:

Watch a new trailer for Robert Eggers' remake of Nosferatu

The original Nosferatu came out all the back in 1922 and instantly became a horror classic. The story is basically Dracula with the names changed for legal purposes, which is enough. It's been remade several times in the decades since, this time by The Witch director Robert Eggers, with Lily-Rose Depp as Ellen Hutter and IT's Bill Skarsgård as the monstrous Count Orlok.

Nicholas Hoult, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin and Willem Dafoe are also on board. Anyone who's seen films like The Northman or The Lighthouse knows that Eggers can drench a movie in atmosphere. He's one of the few directors who's managed to break out as a modern autuer, and this seems right up his alley.

Nosferatu hits theaters on December 25, Christmas Day. So you can make a marathon out of this and Squid Game.

Watch the trailer for Like a Dragon: Yakuza on Prime Video

For something completely different, consider Like a Dragon: Yakuza, a new crime series coming to Prime Video about the Japanese mob, based on the video game series of the same name from Sega.

The trailer looks fun, if too straightforward for this series; the Yazuka games are famous for being off-the-wall bats*it goofy; as in, you fight a piece of construction equipment controlled by a chimpanzee while a circus ringmaster looks on. The silly karaoke segments are better remembered than the loopy plot twists. But this trailer makes the TV show looks like a standard gritty mob drama. I hope they're hiding some weirdness and whimsy behind all that scowling and kicking.

Like a Dragon: Yakuza premieres on Prime Video on October 24.
