We already brought you the "final" trailer for The Northman last week, but if Focus Features wants to share another look at Robert Eggers' Viking epic ahead of its US debut this weekend, you'll find no complaints from us!

This red band teaser is a little on the short side, but it still packs in quite a bit of new footage and some pretty extreme violence, as Amleth sets out to avenge his father's death in the most brutal ways imaginable.

Yes, he does indeed appear to headbutt a man to death in those closing shots.

Set in Iceland at the turn of the 10th century, Alexander Skarsgård plays the Viking prince Amleth, who witnesses his father's (Hawke) murder at the hands of his own brother (Claes Bang) as a child and vows vengeance. He returns as an adult alongside a fellow warrior played by Anya-Taylor Joy, and begins his bloody campaign to rescue his mother Queen Gudrun (Kidman) and claim his birthright.

The Northman also stars Murray McArthur, Ian Gerard Whyte, Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, and Kate Dickie. The movie now playing in The UK and Ireland, and slashes its way into US theatres on April 22.
