One thing we will need to clear up immediately: this is not Guillermo Del Toro’s new film. Remember way back when Juan Antonio Bayona released his latin supernatural shocker The Orphanage and it was also marketed to western audiences as quite literally ‘Guillermo Del Toro’s new movie’? -same story here.
In fact you only need to [...]
