VIDEO: Watch the First Trailer for Lifetime's Flowers in the Attic

The first trailer for Lifetime's highly-anticipated remake of Flowers in the Attic is here, and indicates that Flowers may set a new standard for Lifetime movies.

The best and worst TV reboots

The movie is an adaptation of V.C. Andrews' racy, incest-laden 1979 novel, the first in a series, about a group of siblings who are forced to live in secret in their grandmother's attic after their father is killed in a car accident. It stars Ellen Burstyn as the grandmother, Kiernan Shipka (a.k.a. Sally Draper on Mad Men ) as older sister Cathy Dollanganger, and Heather Graham as the children's mother.

Check out the trailer below, set to a creepy cover of Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine." Will you watch Flowers in the Attic?
