Having won deserved critical acclaim for his feature debut, Cronos, Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro popped over to Hollywood for his next film. Boasting a cast list that includes Mira Sorvino, Josh Brolin and F. Murray Abraham, and set about making a gloopy giant-bug movie. Initially released in a version overseen by a notorious producer who we shall not name, del Toro was finally able to complete his Director’s Cut in 2010 – and that is the version that we shall be presenting.

The Oscar-wining director was kind enough to send us this special intro (on the week of his birthday) ahead of the screening.
