The Devil's Backbone (Spain - 2001)

Anyone else see “The Devil’s Backbone”? It’s one of my favorite movies and maybe even my favorite foreign film. For those who don’t know it’s Guillermo del Toro’s take on a ghost story. It takes place during the Spanish civil war in an orphanage. A new kid comes to live there when it all goes to hell. It’s really intense, dark, and gothic. This film should definitely get more love.



For a little bit of trivia, apparently it’s Michael Jackson’s favorite movie. Makes sense too, little boys as far as the eye can see, very little parental supervision…
