As Cannes Film Festival relaunches it website with a new service offering all films selected for the festival the chance to preview the first five minutes of their film, on release, on their site, and in a year bursting with the latest offerings from the festivals favourite auteurs, here's as many of the trailers as I could find. Starting with Lars von Trier's first return to horror since the Kingdom. It's a long time since a trailer scared the fluids out of me, and I can only hope it lives up to its promise. Full marks to Zentropa for having the only film in competition to shun YouTube's inferior quality streaming - in fact half the films don't even have websites or trailers ready, presumably because the films are still being finished, (or the producers are linktards). For more detailed write-up - Variety has a good run down.

No trailer or website exists for this film (in fact BBC Films and Artifical Eye don't even give it a page on their sites. I've seen coffee mornings better promoted).
