Expectations are high for Aster's follow-up Midsommar, which releases in July. A seriously creepy new trailer has been released.</p><p>Unlike <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/new-trailer-for-hereditary-directors-midsommar-is-/1100-6465367/">March's first teaser</a>, which was more concerned with setting a spooky mood than revealing many plot details, this latest promo is heavier on story.
