Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight is one of this year’s most anticipated films and the trailer is only going to add to the hype.

It’s got all the hallmarks of a classic Tarantino flick: Samuel L Jackson, witty one-liners and a quirky, dark tone.

There’s also a lot of blood, accents and a superb song choice. Watch below.

The Hateful Eight, or H8ful Eight as it is stylised, is set just after the civil war and follows bounty hunter John Ruth, better known as “The Hangman” (Kurt Russell), a fugitive (Jennifer Jason Leigh) and “The Bounty Hunter” (Jackson) as they travel across land to escape a blizzard.

Eventually they make the acquaintance of another five people, forming the hateful eight.

According to former reports this could be Tarantino’s last film, as he believes leaving people to want more “sounds right”. He did, however, say nothing is set in stone.

Earlier on in production of the Hateful Eight, the script was leaked online, leading the director to declare he would not make the movie. He quite quickly changed his mind.

The Hateful Eight is headed for a December 2015 release date.
