'Morbius' trailer gives us first, horrific look of Spider-Man frenemy

'Morbius' seems to go for a more horror, monster movie feel rather than a straight-up superhero movie, so it's got us pretty intrigued.

Of all of Spider-Man's rogues and allies, Morbius the Living Vampire wasn't exactly the first character we'd pick to get his own solo feature film. But the first trailer from the upcoming Morbius seems to go for a more horror, monster movie feel rather than a straight-up superhero movie, so it's got us pretty intrigued.

Morbius stars Jared Leto (taking a second stab at superhero movies after his failed Joker stint in Suicide Squad) as genius scientist Dr. Michael Morbius. Stricken and crippled by a rare blood disease since he was a child, Michael takes a gamble on a 'cure' involving DNA from vampire bats, but is inflicted with a form of vampirism that gives him "increased strength and speed, the ability to use echo location, and an overpowering urge to consume blood."
