You know how you know a dude is scary? When he's wearing a Bill Cosby circa 1988 type of sweater and his scariness factor goes down zero percent.

Actually, that sweater might somehow make Benicio Del Toro's version of infamous Colombian drug kingpin Pablo Escobar slightly more intimidating in a new trailer for EscobarParadise Lost

The film, which is getting fairly positive reviews, especially for Del Toro's intense performance, premiered at the Telluride Film Festival over the weekend.

The film stars Hunger Games star Josh Hutcherson as the American surfer boyfriend of Pablo’s niece who travels to Colombia to meet the family, and ends up with the world's most powerful drug lord putting the heat on him.

So, better or worse than your girlfriend's dad?

Here's the first trailer that came out in July:
