The Double

Finally, a movie trailer that properly conveys the inherent creepiness of walking with your doppelgänger down an imperfectly lit corridor to the rhythmic sound of a cappella blues. The Double—Richard Ayoade's follow-up to the critically-acclaimed bittersweird Submarine—is a loose adaptation of the classic Fyodor Dostoevsky novella that features Jesse Eisenberg as a man whose world and precarious mental state begin to crumble following the appearance of a man who looks exactly like him.

Mia Wasikowska, Wallace Shawn, and Noah Taylor co-star, while fans of Ayoade's work as a British TV actor may note what appears to be the briefest flash of Chris Morris—The IT Crowd's Denholm Reynholm and the co-creator of Nathan Barley—around the 0:25 mark, even though he's not officially credited on IMDB. Ayoade has previously referred to Morris as an idol of his, and the darkly comic yet menacing tone of this trailer seems very much in line with Morris's more surrealist works like Brass Eye and Jam.
