Guillermo Del Toro gave a grim explanation of his love of monsters

You love the works of Guillermo Del Toro or not (I personally lean towards neutral, not really interested party) – and that is still alive in the Director is the personality cult, to doubt is not necessary. Thanks to his unmatched sense of style on the screen came to life, these bizarre and macabre stories like “Crimson peak”, “Hellboy”, “the devil’s Backbone” and his personal gem – Spanish winner of the “Oscar” “pan’s Labyrinth”. Speaking of the latter, it is impossible not to touch on the subject of impressive incarnations of the monsters, the design of which is often developed personally by the Director.

And in a recent interview with Variety, Del Toro briefly but succinctly described the reason for his love of monsters.

I started loving monsters, when I realized – as a child, when meeting with the monster does not have to think. Adults who have to be nice to you, can behave roughly. Adults who should protect you, beat you. But the monsters usually do just based on their appearance. If you swim with a fucking creature from the Black lagoon, then you’re definitely going to die.

Pretty scathing point of view, isn’t it? And at the same time, pretty thoughtful. Although it is in the paintings of Del Toro’s monsters are sometimes much more humane people. About this creature tells of his recent film “water”, won the prize 74-th Venice film festival.

Did you know that the Director at the time refused to remove the film adaptation of the novel “I am legend”?
