First we had a very eerie teaser, and now Weapons — the new horror movie from Barbarian writer/director Zach Cregger — has an equally unsettling trailer.

The story revolves around a school where all the children but one in a class go missing on the same night at the same time, leaving their houses and running into the darkness with their arms stretched out at their sides.

Josh Brolin, Julia Garner, Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, Cary Christopher, with Benedict Wong, and Amy Madigan star in what looks like a creepy summer movie worth keeping on your radar.

Weapons opens in theaters Aug. 8.
