This week's best trailers offer frightening visions from around the world.
The Pyramid
Adapting the deadpan cadence of a 1970s TV spot, the first trailer for The Pyramid helps to establish the movie's unique tone. Ashley Hinshaw, James Buckley, Denis O'Hare, Christa Nicola and Amir K star as a team of archeologists who find something quite a bit different than what they're searching for. The movie opens in theaters on December 5. [MovieClips]

Set to debut at the upcoming Toronto International Film Festival, the fourth installment in the zombie series follows intrepid reporter Angela Vidal, who wakes up in quarantine on a ship in the middle of an ocean. But how safe is she? The Spanish-language trailer does not have subtitles, but, really, we don't think you need to them to get goose pimples. [Fangoria]
