The new ‘Westworld’ trailer goes off the rails quickly

Westworld is being hyped to the point of overhype (this thing better be great), but the trailers, at least, look pretty stunning. The latest spot advertising Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's HBO drama — based on the 1973 Michael Crichton film of the same name — is probably the strongest and also the most extreme so far, with images of A.I. orgies, hand stabbings and general chaos abounding. No, this is NSFW, so if you're at the office currently, be stealthy about it.

Westworld premieres October 2 on HBO.
