Menacing Trailer for Guillermo del Toro's Horror Film CRIMSON PEAK
The first trailer for Guillermo del Toro's upcoming gothic horror film Crimson Peak has been released, and it looks freakin' awesome! I'm a big fan of del Toro's work, but it's his horror films that have intrigued me the most. This seems to have the makings of a true horror masterpiece, and it's going to give fans something to remember.
I absolutely love the gothic, nightmarish tone of the trailer, along with the music that slowly gets more and more unsettling as the trailer plays through. The movie stars Jessica Chastain, Tom Hiddleston, Mia Wasikowska, and Charlie Hunnam. Here's the synopsis:
In the aftermath of a family tragedy, an aspiring author is torn between love for her childhood friend and the temptation of a mysterious outsider. Trying to escape the ghosts of her past, she is swept away to a house that breathes, bleeds…and remembers. Thomas Tull, Jon Jashni, del Toro and Callum Greene produce, and Jillian Share executive produces.
In an interview with STYD, del Toro had this to say about the movie:
“Crimson Peak is a much, much, much smaller movie, completely character-driven. It’s an adult movie, an R-rated movie, pretty adult. Shockingly different from anything I’ve done in the English language. Normally, when I go to do a movie in America for the spectacle and younger audience, for Blade or whatever. This movie’s tone is scary and it’s the first time I get to do a movie more akin to what I do in the Spanish movies.”
The movie will be released on October 16th, 2015. You can see what's in store for you in the trailer below!
