For all that they only had a short time together, Carlos loved Casares like a father. 😭 I suppose they all did. He was a lovely man. I hope they can find someone else as kind, if probably not as learned. Thanks for the ghost revenge and fetus rum #FrightClub! #TheDevilsBackbone

"Burn the place, kill the kids, I don't give a shit." The kids, armed to the teeth: Oh REALLY #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

Carlos: Oh hey Ghost Santi I've been meaning to speak to you 😆 #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

Oh wow the kids are actually doing an extremely competent job cleaning debris out of Owl's wounds I guess it's a skill you might have to learn young in wartime #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

"You're making me look like a fool." Nah man you're doing that very well all on your own #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

The heel coming off Jaime's boot The little touches are so *thoughtful* #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

The poem Dr. Casares recites is called "Be near me" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. It is also included in Hellboy II: The Golden Army. #FrightClub #TheDevilsBackbone

THE POEM 😭 #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

The almost total silence, because nobody can hear anything after that blast Ambient sound gradually fades back in... Beautifully done #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

"You going to shoot me?" Weeeellll... #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

I absolutely adore this kid's gutsy determination to be friends with the school bully and with the school ghost #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

I don't care how many ghosts are in the basement, the scariest thing in this movie so far is the pickled ghost fetus’ in rum. That’s a hell no from me! #theDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

Messed-up fetuses in jars! Drink! #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

That wood and metal leg is a work of art Seems like it would be heavy and uncomfortable though #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

I love him for it Chin up and forward ho! He's a brave little goober #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

My man, you obviously know that's a student you heard There is no more likely suspect; there isn't even an equally likely suspect What you doin' getting that shotgun? #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

"Let's hide here by the side of this unexploded missile. What could go wrong?" #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

I respect our young student's impulse to check under the bedclothes when no one was there "Is this a trick?" 😄 #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

"He seems quite meek." He just got into a fistfight with a much bigger bully in his first ten minutes, not sure "meek" is the word I'd use 😆 #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

I feel like clumsily wielding a big sledgehammer right next to a child's head is a dubious choice #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

As usual, I don't really remember this. I'm certain I've watched it with #FrightClub before, but it's been long enough that I couldn't find a record. All that's coming back is I thought it was beautiful, which seems like a given with a Guillermo Del Toro picture! #TheDevilsBackbone

If 2026 has taught me anything, it’s that if you find an unexploded bomb in your yard, you don't call the authorities—you just make a TikTok with it and hope for the best. #theDevilsBackbone #FrightClub

Flying blind into my first watch of #theDevilsBackbone with the #FrightClub but I did have a friend tell me this is one of his favorite del Toro films

Press play on #TheDevilsBackbone #FrightClub! Links to film in pinned post.

I’m currently watching The Devil’s Backbone for the first time. I saw many of its props in 2017 at the Guillermo del Toronto Cabinets of Curiosity show. It was my favourite exhibit of all time, and I went to see it several times. I’ll share my observations in this thread, hiding stuff in case you haven’t seen it yet. #GuillermoDelToro #TheDevilsBackbone #movies

#Spooktober: #TheDevilsBackbone

Del Toro's "The Devil's Backbone" had been on my watchlist for years. Finally available on Prime and I was not disappointed. A wonderfully quiet, profound & heartbreaking #horror drama that uses the orphanage as a microcosm to draw a strong metaphor for the Spanish Civil War & Franco's regime. Good and evil are skilfully juxtaposed here, showing how easy it is to switch to the opposite side when circumstances (such as war) force the individual to do so. Strong.
