If you love Guillermo Del Toro then I love you. If you do love del toro then there is a big chance that you know he directed the start to the most recent Tree House of Horror in The Simpsons series. It is absolutely amazing and plays off all his favourite movies and ones that he has also directed.
As you can see only Del Toro would be able to make the start to Treehouse of Horror so entertaining. Del Toro views the horror genre as inherently political, explaining, “Much like fairy tales, there are two facets of horror. One is pro-institution, which is the most reprehensible type of fairy tale: Don’t wander into the woods, and always obey your parents. The other type of fairy tale is completely anarchic and antiestablishment.”
His films consist of:
My personal favourites are both The Devil’s Backbone and Pans Labyrinth.
