Westworld shines in first futuristic trailer [Video]

Okay, that title is a little off. Nothing about Westworld actually shines. In fact, it’s pretty dark AF. It’s set in the future, with people hopping into a Western-themed theme park and trying to kill each other. It’s more dusty and rusty than shiny.

No matter, it looks terrific. The modern take on Michael Crichton’s story debuts this October in a 1-hour dramatic series over on HBO. From the looks of the first trailer, things go horribly wrong. Surprise!
