The Devil's Backbone (2001) | Witches Movie Coven

"Set during the final week of the Spanish Civil War, THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE tells the tale of a ten-year-old boy who, after his freedom-fighting father is killed, is sent to a haunted rural orphanage full of terrible secrets." Welcome to The Witches Movie Coven. This week we're taking on Guillermo Del Toro's THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE which effectively combines gothic ghost story, murder mystery, and historical melodrama in a stylish concoction that reminds us—as would his later Pan’s Labyrinth—that the scariest monsters are often the human ones. Join your favorite witches Patti Negri, Scarlett Amaris, Jason Mankey, Courtney Buckley, Richard-Lael Lillard and Tabitha Meadows in the chatroom to discuss. Will it be wands up or wands down? Come circle with us this Wednesdays or find us on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.
