20 Horror Films That Will Chill You To The Bone In 2015

3. Crimson Peak

Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim was an over-the-top robots vs monsters action movie with dimensional rifts, psychically-linked pilots and a massive amount of destruction. As fun as all of that undoubtedly was, it€™s understandable that del Toro would want to plan something very different and a little less bombastic for his next directorial outing. Crimson Peak is a ghost story set in England, which will see del Toro reinvigorate the horror directing talents with which he first made his name. The official synopsis of the film reads as follows: "In the aftermath of a family tragedy, an aspiring author is torn between love for her childhood friend and the temptation of a mysterious outsider. Trying to escape the ghosts of her past, she is swept away to a house that breathes, bleeds...and remembers." Del Toro has previously cited Robert Wise€™s The Haunting and Jack Clayton€™s The Innocents €“ the two indomitable legends of the haunted house horror genre €“ as strong influences when piecing together the script for Crimson Peak. In other words, genre fans can expect something epic.
