Del Toro heading to Saturn
At the New York Comic Con, Guillermo Del Toro announced that he is planning to direct SATURN AND THE END OF DAYS, which he called his “final little movie about childhood and horror.” Like THE DEVIL’S BACKBONE and PAN’S LABYRINTH, the film will feature a child protagonist dealing with adult horrors.
“It’s about a kid named Saturn watching the Rapture and the Apocalypse while on the way back and forth from the grocery store. It’s like, what would happen if the Apocalypse was viewed by you [while] doing errands. You go back and forth and nothing big happens except the entire world is being sucked into a vortex of fire.”

If this movie is anywhere near the caliber of his previous forays into this field it should be a treat. It will be interesting to see how this final film continues Del Toro’s process of working through his stern Catholic upbringing and his shift as an adult to an embrace of myth and monsters.
