💀🧑💻A Spook-A-Doodle Bracketology Tournament & Movie Club Collection👩💻💀
Guillermo del Toro - maybe my favorite storyteller in today's film industry. Not "film maker", not "director". Story teller. del Toro has this knack of creating modern fairy tales of the old Grimm horror kind. I love him.
He’s back and I’m gonna keep bringing him back, and thankfully I can because del Toro is dedicated to bringing other filmmakers forward and produces and finances lots of young first time feature film directors as well as promotes and inspires others.

He’s back and I’m gonna keep bringing him back, and thankfully I can because del Toro is dedicated to bringing other filmmakers forward and produces and finances lots of young first time feature film directors as well as promotes and inspires others. This team is kind of a collective of all of those things. André Øvredal is a return customer despite losing Troll Hunter and Anatomy of Jane Doe last year but he still has his GdT produced film. GdT’s got some new faces this year he produced in Troy Nixey’s Don’T Be Afraid of the Dark, JA Bayone’s Th Orphanage, and Scott Cooper’s Antlers. And coming in as a wild card is Rahi Anil Barve with a very GdT like creatures and fairy tale Tumbbad. Maybe a bit of a stretch? But its in the spirit of the team. And GdT has a few decent films of his own left. So once more into the fray.
