The full movie trailer for the eagerly-awaited Alien prequel 'Prometheus' has premiered - and it looks incredible, of course.

The movie, directed by Ridley Scott chronicles mankind's first interaction with the acid-blooded, parasitic life-form that thrilled movie-goers through the eighties. Set on a distant planet, the trailer stars Noomi Rapace, Guy Pearce, Michael Fassbender and a seriously villainous Charlize Theron in lead roles.

The trailer promises plenty of stomach-tearing, face-hugging action that fans of the series have come to expect from the franchise, and them movie is certain to be one of 2012's biggest blockbuster successes.

Watch the full Prometheus trailer below - if you dare.
