When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the washed-up but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As he reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion - a ragtag group of retired superheroes, only one of whom has true powers - Rorschach glimpses a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future. Their mission is to watch over humanity...but who is watching the watchmen?

Zack Snyder has done it again. Dawn of the Dead (2004), 300 & now watchmen. Based on what I've seen in the teaser he's captured perfectly Alan Moore & Dave Gibbons masterpiece.

Cannot get over this incredible trailer. Absolutely amazing, pretty much every scene is lifted straight from the comic book. Haven't anticipated a film this much in years :D
