‘Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities’ is a Must See for Horror Fans
Horror master Guillermo del Toro takes over Netflix for four nights this month with his terrifying Cabinet of Curiosities.
Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities is an anthology that pushes the boundaries of horror with eight new tales. It brings together a group of amazing horror directors including Panos Cosmatos (Mandy) and Jennifer Kent (The Babadook). Guillermo del Toro describes the series:
“With ‘Cabinet of Curiosities,’ we set out to showcase the realities existing outside of our normal world: the anomalies and curiosities. We hand-picked and curated a group of stories and storytellers to deliver these tales. They come from outer space, supernatural lore, [and] simply within our minds. Each of these eight tales is a fantastical peek inside the cabinet of delights existing underneath the reality we live in.”
It looks like viewers are going to be treated to stories and sights from across the genre. From gothic and demonic horror to more modern philosophical takes with a nasty looking trip. Looks like some ghosts and body horror mixed in there. I am looking forward to this.
