Creepy moment from movie trailer is making people drop their phones

Smile is the horror movie everyone is talking about

People have resorted to 'throwing their phones' after watching the spooky trailer for the upcoming horror film Smile.

The first look at the film has quickly spread across social media and we can definitely understand why.

Filled with jump scares, creepy smiling and unnerving music, the film is a horror tale about a woman who starts witnessing freakish events after a traumatic accident.

Let's see if you're brave enough - but hold that phone tight:

Sosie Bacon plays the film's lead, a doctor named Rose Cotter whose life takes a horrific turn. Rose must confront her past in order to deal with all the strangeness going on around her.

She is haunted by someone - or something - continuously smiling at her and while the exaggerated grins do look like a filter you might find on an app, there's no denying that Rose has got herself into a sinister situation. Could the Joker be in with some competition?

Another confused viewer shared: "Nothing creepier than ppl smiling for no reason."

While a third person tweeted: "Ok ngl 99% of movies don’t leave me scared but this might take the cake sheesh dawg."

It turns out lots of people were particularly horrified with a scene in which a woman contorts her elongated neck upside down and stares into a car window.

Sharing a meme of American Horror Story legend Sarah Paulson screaming, one frightened Twitter user wrote: "WHEN THE NEck sWUNG DOWN WHFHHWHDHWNW."

Similarly, one other person shared: "No because the very first time I saw that neck swing I was ready to vacate."

The film was directed by Parker Finn and is based on his earlier short film, Laura Hasn't Slept.

The cast also includes Jessie T. Usher, Kyle Gallner, Rob Morgan, Kal Penn, Judy Reyes, Gillian Zinser and Caitlin Stasey.

Smile is released in cinemas on 30 September.
