Video: New Michael Fassbender Prometheus viral trailer is seriously freaky

The film is based in the same universe as the original Alien movies, but does not not have any direct connections to the films.

The latest viral clip to be released builds on myth of Peter Weyland, played by Aussie Guy Pierce, whose Weyland Corp supply David, Prometheus's android butler and maintenance man, played by Michael Fassbender.

Your own robot Michael Fassbender? We're sure there are plenty of women reading this who could think of how they could be reasonably popular.

The clip is an advert for Weyland Corp's robots, featuring David. There's some incredibly creepy whispery sales shtick from David himself, and then some unnerving crying, but despite that, by the end all we could think about was how excited about this freakin' film we are.
