Frightening scenes of Heath Ledger playing the Joker from the just released Batman movie, "The Dark Knight", have audiences on edge - nearly eight months after the actor was found dead in New York.
In one scene from the film, Ledger is dressed in a white nurse's uniform, waving a gun and wearing a surgical mask. In another, his face painted with the Joker's trademark evil grin in red, he points a gun directly at the camera.
These are just two of the many images film company Warner Bros is using to promote The Dark Knight, just released in Australia and the US on July 17.
From the movie's marketing material to the trailer, Ledger appears to be the main draw, with Christian Bale, who plays Batman, taking a back seat.
The film also stars Michael Caine, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Aaron Eckhart, Morgan Freeman and Christian Bale - playing the role of Batman.
Ledger had his work cut out for him by accepting the part of the Joker, which was made legendary by Jack Nicholson.
Ledger was found dead in his New York apartment on January 22 after an accidental overdose.
