We have been waiting for the Black Swan trailer since that awesome photo of a face-painted Natalie Portman first surfaced.

And, whew boy, this baby doesn't disappoint.

In Darren Aronofsky's new thriller, Portman plays a prima ballerina primed to take the lead role in her NYC company's production of Swan Lake. But wait! In swans newbie Mila Kunis, who catches company director—and dancer romancer—Vincent Cassel's eye. As the two women become frenemies, Natalie discovers her own dark side.

It's like a ballet version of Showgirls! But actually cool and creepy, not just campy.

So what do you think? Has the trailer got your feathers ruffled, too—in a good way?
