"You wanna get out of here? I could take you somewhere..." In anticipation of its limited opening (theaters here) this weekend, Fox Searchlight has unveiled very subtle, but certainly seductive, new red band spot for Steve McQueen's Shame, starring Michael Fassbender as a sex addicted guy living in New York City. We've already featured numerous trailers for this, including one that only had Carey Mulligan singing, but obviously the red band nature of this plus the NC-17 rating the film has received (and is trying to defeat) will definitely attract more viewers. Listen carefully to the trailer and don't watch at work, you know better!

Watch the new red band trailer for Steve McQueen's Shame, originally found on Facebook:

Shame is directed by Steve McQueen, who also wrote the script with Abi Morgan. The controversial and sexual drama stars Michael Fassbender as a 30-something living in New York City who can't control his sex life and sexual desire, and things get thrown out of whack when his "fragile" sister, played by Carey Mulligan, moves into his apartment. Fox Searchlight says, "Steve McQueen's courageous exploration of modern life's extremes is breathtaking. He has crafted an extraordinary film that probes some of the deepest and darkest issues ever portrayed on screen." Searchlight will open Shame in theaters on December 2nd.
