Priming even more excitement for tomorrow’s SDCC virtual panel, HBO released a new full-length trailer for its upcoming Lovecraft Country series along with a beautiful title card/poster.

The trailer features a ton of new footage along with a much greater emphasis on the intersection of Jim Crowe-era America and cosmic dread.
Lots of great stuff in there, but can we stop and admire the elder god who appears at 1:59 for a second?

As awesome as that shot was, however, I think my favorite scene from the trailer was at 0:39 when Jurnee Smollett’s character Leti looks off a couple suspicious/racist white women like a total boss.

Lovecraft Country premieres Sunday, August 16 at 9:00 pm EDT on HBO. Be sure to check back here after their SDCC panel tomorrow (4:00 – 5:00 pm PDT) for our recap!
