Last weekend, "Crimson Peak" was screened in the Austin Fantastic Fest. Although the full reviews will restrained until next month, positive reactions emerged on the social media.
Different personalities have expressed their sentiments through the Twitter Feed regarding Guillermo Del Toro's "Crimson Peak". Slash Film has compiled all the posts in an article. Some of the users can't wait for the full review on mid-October while others commended Jessica Chastain and Del Toro for a great movie.
"Crimson Peak" is based on the story of Edith Cushing (Mia Wasikowska), an aspiring author who was entangled between her love for her long-time friend and the temptation of a stranger. She was brought to the Crimson Peak mansion where she experiences haunting.
In Entertainment listed other cast of the movie which includes the names of Tom Hiddleston (Thomas Harpe), Charlie Hunnam (Dr. Alan McMichael), Jessica Chastain (Lady Lucille Sharpe), Doug Jones, Burn Gorman, Jim Beaver, Leslie Hope, Javier Botet, Sofia Wells as the young Edith Cushing, Joanna Douglas, and Emily Coutts.
In the movie, there will be a scene where Hiddleston showed his naked back. He teased in E! News that it would be unfair if men are prohibited from being naked when in fact, naked females are usually shown off naked. Moreover, he explained that he didn't have a problem with it.
"I didn't have a problem with the nakedness because I felt that there's always been a strain of sexuality in Gothic romance as much as there has been the fear of death and the threat of violence," Hiddleston explained.
He reiterated that the film must be of balance to bring out the sense of the romantic horror movie. "It's a very violent film and I felt like we needed to balance that. So if we're going to bring up the violence we needed to bring up the sense of sexuality."
While the "Crimson Peak" movie waits for its premiere, it will be released before the Halloween. With Del Toro directing the film and the positive comments on the social media account, the movie is one of the highly anticipated films.
