All hell breaks loose in the second corpse-filled trailer for Hercules, as the gods unleash the monsters from the underworld into mythical Greece.

To the rescue comes the title character, played by Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson, who vanquishes his "I'm no hero" mindset in order to seek revenge for his family's death and to save everyone from impending bloody doom.
