I've just viewed this on YouTube and was wondering if anyone else here has seen it yet and what their thoughts were?

I liked the 1st one.

I thought the 2nd one wasn't as good.

The one up on his site now is awesome. I love the psycho tie in.

My brother is a photoshop artist and said they call that visual style (the look )

All i can say is the clips are top notch , create a awesome norman bates type of hammer horror feel . Truely a visual treat , well done old chap , bloody well done

What I was trying to find out was everyones feelings on why Alice (Spider) was speaking in a woman's voice. Is there someone else inside of him? I mean he refers to Steven in the epilogue and on listening to ACAS I felt no suggestion of a female persona inside of him - could this be the Black Widow talking?? I was just totally thrown by this!

Loved all the trailers so far, they're really cool.

The female voice is because of the the Psycho theme. At the end of the movie the Mother personality had taken over Norman Bates.

OK but Psycho theme? I didn't get that? I know Spider is supposed to be a psychopath but I don't see why he would speak as a woman. With Norman Bates it was because he had his mother inside of him doing the killing... but I don't see where the woman inside comes from with Spider? In the video it shows him turning into a woman too! That is why I am wondering who this woman is and could only think of it being the Black Widow. Otherwise it makes no sense to me?

As far as I am concerned - In Touch With Your Feminine Side is Spider getting in touch with his female victims, otherwise it would be In Touch With My Feminine Side!

I think it is simply a gimmicky joke. "Hey, let's re-enact the scene from Psycho, even though it has nothing to do with anything." We all know how much Alice loves films. It was probably his lifelong dream to be Norman Bates.

Hmmm well maybe I'm reading too much into this but I guess I wasn't expecting or wanting a gimmicky joke.

I think he looks cute...In a Lecter-ish way

Public Hannibal #9 anyone ?

Maybe it has something to do with the fly, Spiders trap,kill and eat fly's right ?

I don't see what the fly has to do with the woman speaking out of Spider?

Who knows maybe the woman is the twist that I've heard of? Maybe the woman that Alice falls for is the killer. And Alice was framed or something along those lines roll on July 29Th.

I have a few clippings with Psycho references. He (Alice) described Alice the character as sophisticated, like Hannibal Lector. Norman Bates surely is cut from the same cloth and would make a good "nod to".

My weird mind interpreted it as the Spider (kind of like the psycho mother guiding Norman) ?
But I always add my personal note to these things

Roll on indeed! I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who giving their views on this. I guess I was just very surprised when I saw this trailer and could not fathom where Alice was going with it! I can't see that it's the woman Spider falls for as she is speaking from inside of him..... unless you are saying that in some strange way (as with Norman Bates and his mother) this woman has worked her way inside of his sick mind and now he thinks he is her!

I think some people are just trying to read too much into it.
