Honestly. ANY of his movies. The first @RealGDT movie I ever saw was The Devils Backbone. The cinematography inspired me, I also really loved his take on ghosts. It’s my favorite movie and he’s my favorite director. I’ve been a die hard ever since.

While TDB is not my first GDT movie—we have the same experience of being inspired from his work down to loving his take on ghosts! He was also the reason I pursued filmmaking in college 🤧

I'll check it out. Thanks.

In some ways Crimson Peak was better. I felt it had more impact with the violence and was genuinely shocking at times
Replying to @thedrkling_
Crimson Peak never got the praise it deserved on release, I’m glad over the years people see it for the gothic masterpiece it’s always been.

Once again, imagine this scene in wuthering heights with Heathcliff and Catherine's ghost. Guillermo Del Toro would have been perfect for wuthering heights, not Emerald Fennell

I did this. With passion. My costume last halloween was Lady Lucille's nightgown.

I recently discovered that there’s an official novel adaptation of this film and im so excited to experience one of my fav films in a different medium
Replying to @thedrkling_
This movie is so good and the fashion eats and leaves no crumbs at all. It's one of my favorites.

You're right, but it's a bit strange to post a video with such major spoilers as a teaser then... ^^;
