David Fincher's 'Girl With The Dragon Tattoo' Trailer Hits The Web (Video)

No one's sure how it got there taking credit yet, but the red-band trailer for David Fincher's highly anticipated adaptation of the hit Stieg Larsson novel, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," has surfaced on the web.

And it's gaining momentum. Fast.

From the slice of story we see here, it looks like Fincher's using a hard-edged approach to capture this dramatic thriller, which stars Rooney Mara as the hacker heroine Lisbeth Salander and Daniel Craig as the journalist-gone-rogue Mikael Blomkvist.

The trailer cuts quickly from snowy roads, to racing motorcycles, to bloody showers, as well as everything (and we mean everything) in between. In fact, it even brands itself as "The feel bad movie of Christmas." Move over Mark Zuckerberg, because there's a new computer genius in town, and she's not interested in making any friends.

Of course, the excitement of the trailer itself is mirrored only by the mystery of how this clip even landed on the web. Supposedly, it was recorded (illegally, mind you) in a European movie theater, but, as The Hollywood Reporter points out, the quality is unusually good for such a video and there are no sounds of other theatergoers. Odd.

Even more eyebrow-raising is the mere fact that the videos haven't been pulled from the web. Yet. Stay tuned. It would certainly be appropriate if Sony were going a viral route to launch their campaign for this flick.

Check out the sneak peek for yourself (while you can) and see if you think you can hang with Fincher's new crew.

"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" hits theaters Dec. 21.
