spider head trailer and release date are out. On Tuesday, Netflix released a nearly two-minute trailer for the dystopian sci-fi thriller feature to give fans a taste of what to expect and confirm that the title will hit the streaming platform on June 17. . The video introduces us to Steve Abnesti, a pharmaceutical genius who conducts certain experiments on the inmates of a futuristic prison named Spiderhead. He believes that “we make the world a better place” through his actions. In a particularly haunting sequence, Abnesti says the days of worrying about “crossing lines” are over, indicating he doesn’t have much respect for ethics.

While what we see here isn’t overtly funny, it does have a quirky vibe. This suggests the movie will have a bit of dark humor, along the lines of what we’ve seen in some episodes of the Netflix anthology series Black Mirror.
