Two days ago, the new trailer for Flesh of the Void was released. It went extremely well so far, with tons of coverage in articles from all over the world, a whole lot of new fans, which today made us reach 900 likes on the film's Facebook page, and over 16000 clicks on Vimeo. We did spark a lot of hate too, as expected, but that's okay, it really isn't for everybody.
My favorite comment yet was "this makes John Waters flicks look like Bambi."
Here is a small selection of articles from the past two days (posting all of them is impossible, due to the large amount)

Also, one thing I'd like to clarify, after it was brought up by a couple of people: The trailer shows a lot of violence and cruelty, but this film is not in any way torture porn, or like August Underground. Even though there are some very extreme scenes in the film, the amount of gore shown is a lot lower than you might think. A lot of what's shown is there to play with your mind, on a purely psychological basis, and the film's purpose is not to gross you out, but make you feel something you may not have felt before. The ending of the film is actually quite calm and thoughtful, which says a lot about what I was trying to achieve emotionally, since endings completely shape the way you leave a film.
That said, yes, it's still messed up.
