Guillermo del Toro invites you into his gothic house of horrors
After an unofficial leak made its way online Friday, the trailer for Guillermo del Toro’s haunted house horror Crimson Peak has now arrived in proper fashion.
Crimson Peak finds Mia Wasikowska as author Edith Cushing, who is freshly wed to the charming, heroic Sir Thomas Sharpe (Tom Hiddleston). She moves to live with him in the titular massive, crumbling family pile in Cumbria. But soon after she arrives, she discovers that her husband is not who he appears to be, and the house itself has some very dark secrets. Jessica Chastain plays Lady Lucille Sharpe, Sir Thomas’s sister, a woman who carries her fair share of dangerous mysteries swirling about her.
Based on the evidence of this first peek at the Peak, it’s a stylish, moody affair, dripping with both slow-burn gothic chills and plenty of the sort of imagery he’s brought to film such as Pan’s Labyrinth and the Hellboy films. With an impressive cast that includes Charlie Hunnam, Burn Gorman, Doug Jones, Leslie Hope and Jim Beaver helping to bring the terror to life, Crimson Peak will hit our cinemas on October 16 next year.
