Go See: Mama

While Halloween was months ago, I'm always up for a horror film.  Especially when it has Guillermo del Toro's mark on it and especially when I'm invited to watch it at the Soho House (oh yes, I did!).  del Toro executive produced "Mama", which was directed by Andres Muschietti, an argentian filmmaker who originally created "Mama" as a short film but after it was viewed at a film festival in Europe, well the word got out and Mr. del Toro came a-knocking. 
 
Starring oscar-nominated Jessica Chastain and the hunky Nikolaj Coster-Waldau ("Game of Thrones" & Paul Bettany's best mate in "Wimbledon") who play a couple that end up taking care of two little girls who were abandoned in the woods for five years.  It already sounds creepy, right?  Alls I'm going to say is that there are definitely some fantastical del Toro moments so let your mind go there - you will definitely get spooked!
