Three clips from writer/director Lynne Ramsay's We Need to Talk About Kevin are now available online. Starring Tilda Swinton, John C. Reilly, and Ezra Miller, the film centers around a mother and father (Swinton & Reilly) whose son is responsible for a high-school massacre. The film is based on the novel of the same name by Lionel Shriver and the clips on display here have an eerie aura that stick with me as I type.

Hit the jump to check out the clips. We Need to Talk About Kevin is currently slated for a September 2 release in the UK. Stateside release details may very well be forthcoming following the film's debut at the Cannes Film Festival which runs from May 11-22.

Here are the clips from Flix [via The Playlist]:
