Shutter Island Movie Trailer #2

Posted on Friday, October 2nd, 2009 by Peter Sciretta

Shutter Island

Paramount Pictures has released a new movie trailer for Martin Scorsese’s adaptation of Dennis Lehane’s novel Shutter Island. You might recognize some of the scenes as the new trailer starts off pretty close to the first release, playing off of the same moments, voiceover and beats, but is definitely a completely new edit. Watch the trailer after the jump, and please leave your thoughts in the comments below!

The story follows a U.S. Marshal named Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) who travels to Shutter Island, a small island in Massachusetts’ Outer Harbor, home of Ashecliffe Hospital for the Criminally Insane, to find an escaped murderous patient in the Summer of 1954. And I’ll let the official plot description take over:

“But nothing at Ashecliffe Hospital is what it seems. And neither is Teddy Daniels. Is he there to find a missing patient? Or has he been sent to look into rumors of Ashecliffe’s radical approach to psychiatry? The closer Teddy and Chuck get to the truth, the more elusive it becomes, and the more they begin to believe that they may never leave Shutter Island. Because someone is trying to drive them insane. . .”

The film also stars Mark Ruffalo, Ben Kingsley, Michelle Williams, Patricia Clarkson, and Jackie Earle Haley.

    Does anyone else feel like the sky in the opening shot of DiCaprio and Ruffalo looked cheesily fake?
  • I don't think so. It looks real to me. Perhaps that will change when I see it in February. Damn you Paramount!
  • i noticed it too. that shot is very poorly greenscreened. i saw many other shots in this trailer that seem to have pretty mediocre cgi too (maybe unfinished?), which i think could really be a bad thing for this movie.. I actually dont even think the opening shot of the island is real. it just doesn't look right to me. There is a shot of leo holding a girl as she vanishes.. the shot was in the first trailer.. but i remember that version of it looking better, or at least more simple and effective. now she burns away in a cgi clusterfuck and looks like something from a 2005 pg13 horror film. but overall it still looks like it could be very good.
  • Much better trailer. The first one basically gave the twist away.
  • This trailer does the same, just not as much.
  • Miradon
    Uh, no it doesn't.
  • i bet they got shit for it last time. now they don't even mention the whole patient 67 thing in this one - which was pretty much what they formed the whole other trailer (and posters) around.. unfortunately most of us who have seen the first trailer have probablyyy figured it out.
  • I don't think so. I saw the trailer and i was just blown away. I didn't want to think what it was about until i see it. I guess if you know the book, everything's pretty clear, but i was just confused and ... well i just want to see it.
  • Outstanding trailer. The film looks beautiful. The opening shot of the trailer with the boat in the fog reminds me of Jackson's King Kong. That's not a bad thing.
  • I wish this movie was coming out this month instead of four months from now.
  • I'm with you 100%. Although I knew about it already, I still cursed and slammed a fist with the final title card
  • yeah I hate what has happened recently. First with Shutter Island, and more recently The Road. I guess from now on I'll look forward to four months after the original release date.
  • robtrench
    I guess you guys are aware that today was supposed to be the day that Shutter Island was to be released, before it got delayed.
  • No i wasn't. Damn you for telling me this! Damn you Paramount!
  • Craigasorusrex
    That was a great trailer the imagery in this looks great. Scorsese really did a great job with this one it seems.
  • Rockie
    i'm gonna see this

    hate dicaprio accents
  • yer
    Today was the original release date... :(
  • ericlarson
    FUCK YOU PARAMOUNT
  • The first 2/3 of the book were strong, but the ending was a letdown.
  • Joe
    We all should be watching this today :(

    I like this trailer better though, it reveals less.
  • freemachine
    Wow, Elias Koteas really looks like De Niro in that one shot. I had to pause it and go through frame by frame in order to convince myself I wasn't seeing things...
  • Mista Fista
    These previews give away too much of the story. Clearly the extra patient is the ghost girl. Dumb.

    I saw that preview for the Crazies too and it ends with a truck outrunning an atomic-sized explosion. I wonder what happens to the town?
  • Ron
    It cracks me up how sure you are of yourself, yet how entirely wrong you are.
  • Propadanda
    Clearly the previews didn't give away too much of the story then, haha!

    And yeah, the ashen, crumbly Michelle Williams looks shitty compared to the fade out in the original trailer.
  • Nick
    LOL. You are so wrong. You have no idea what the twist is unless you read the book, trust me.
  • If you watch enough "psychological thrillers/horrors" coming out of Hollywood the past few years the twist will not come as a surprise to you.
  • The first trailer didn't go over too well when I saw it with a crowded cinema last. Lots of scoffing and 'meh' reactions. I'm only going because it's Scorsese.
  • Nick
    I hate it that this was pushed back til February.
  • Whoa, that was quite impressive. Also very amazing sound mix for the trailer. Like deep and disturbing with all the base effects. Hopefully gives the right mood.
    As far as some said about greenscreens and like.. well, for me looks dead real. Though watching in hd sometimes for unknown reasons make everything look more real.
  • WhatYouHadSaid
    Looks like it will be amazing!
  • papasanchez
    Love how it looks, terrifying, mad and dark dark dark!

    I have not read the book, but I plan to buy the book and read before movie release. I was looking forward to the movie release date of October 2009. Take a look at the Hospital in Kentucky called, "Eastern State Hospital." In 2005, there was an archeolgoical report that estimated 10,000 skeletons of former mental patients to be buried on the grounds. The census of how many actual patients were recorded being buried on the grounds was far less
    than 10,000. There are approximately 2,000 former patients simply unaccounted for. Though records were not legally required to be kept until the early 1900's, there is simply no way based on the estimate of patients death toll that explains why that many former patients were buried on the grounds. A new hospital is expected to be built with 130 million dollars appropriated by the Commonwealth of Kentucky Legislator. The New Hospital will be located in a different part of the city in Lexington. The people felt that there were just too many skeletons around and to build a entirely new hospital in a different part of Lexington was the appropriate step to help right a wrong.

    If you like Shutter Island, then read about "Suitcases from the Attic," which is contains stories and pictures of what people looked like before entering the hospital and the reasons for their committment.
