Devil’s Backbone Frederico Luppi 2002 DVD Top-quality Free UK shipping

From acclaimed Mexican horror maestro Guillermo Del Toro comes The Devil’s Backbone, a truly terrifying spine-tingler combining state of the art special effects with towering performances from a combination of Latin legends (Federico Luppi and Marisa Paredes) and younger stars (Eduardo Noriega, from Alejandro Amenabar’s Open Your Eyes).
A deliciously dark horror, The Devil’s Backbone tells the tale of a remote Spanish orphanage during the final days of The Spanish Civil War whose young inhabitants are brutally terrorised by Santi, a decomposing spirit who stalks the building’s dark decaying hallways. But, as the film builds to a grisly, explosive finale, the children learn the true story of Santi’s death and rise up to vow a deadly vengeance on his vicious murderer. Produced by Pedro Almodovar and brilliantly photographed for maximum suspence by leading cinematographer Guillermo Navarra, The Devil’s Backbone is a truly haunting, memorable ghost story.
