El Orfanato


Wonderful, and so, so creepy. This is Benicio del Toro's editorial masterpiece, much closer than Pan's Labyrinth to a set of familiar fears that populate our imaginations. It kept me on the edge of the seat throughout.

Don't miss it. Even if you have to spend most of the movie without glasses staring at your fiancee's shoulder.
