EVERYTHING. i am not even exaggerating. i just spent the past half hour whispering her name aggressively and bouncing around energetically in the dark, empty movie theater parking lot. weird? maybe. necessary after seeing this movie? for me, absolutely

  I hate it when I am Buffalo, NY's hunkiest blonde ophthalmologist and my gf-to-be leaves me for a goth fop. ANYWAY I've said it before I'll say it again: Charlie Hunnam is Henry Cavill for smart people

  86/100

  Del Toro does Gothic romance, and it's as emotionally charged, visually luscious, and batshit insane as you'd expect. An underlying presence of swirly horror heightens an already painstakingly artificial canvas of candlelight and romance, but it is within the spatial movement of gorgeously costumed actors relating to a mysterious house that bursts with spookiness. Crimson Peak, even in its smaller details, is ravishing.

  In fact, I was so immediately swept up in its Digital ode to analog terrors, with Del Toro's use of classical filmmaking techniques such as wipes and irises casting an ever-potent spell, that even a simple waltz carried me into a realm of overwhelming devotion.

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  It's not a ghost story. The ghost is a metaphor for the past.

  Wow.

  Wow!

  WOW!!

  Guillermo Del Toro, you have almost outdone yourself, with this atmospheric Gothic chiller. It's almost to Pan's Labyrinth levels of mastery, and it amazes me how chilling and twisted it turned out to be.

  A word of advice, however: Don't go by any of the trailers this film fed to us. It's definitely not a straight-up ghost story. It's actually more of a romantic horror story with a beautiful and atmospheric setting and some well-made and placed twists. Yes, there are plenty of grotesque ghosts (in the form of skeletons), but they serve more as a backdrop to the real plot. Trust me when…
