PV is up on the site now. Obviously not actual animation.
http://www.okiagari.net/pv.html Hopefully they'll do the manga justice though. It's rare to get a more "realistic" vampire story in anime.

HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS!?
Ono Fuyumi = epic win Ooo the cover of the second manga is creepy! This is so on my "cant wait" list. Only thing that worries me is there are only like 19 or so manga chaps out, makes me wonder if theyll do a novel adaptation or just animate what the manga has out.

Shiki got confirmed to be a noitaminA series, and the noitaminA block is now 1 hour long so it will air 2 shows per cour.

^^ I wouldn't automatically assume that Shiki will run for 2 episodes per cour based on that announcement. Another conclusion could be drawn. Such as: Shiki will run 1 episode alongside another as-yet-unannounced noitaminA show.
