After Guillermo del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth this next film of which del Toro takes a page out of Quentin Tarantino’s book and “presents” it to us, comes The Orphanage from director Juan Antonio Bayona and Picturehouse has just made available the domestic poster for the film.
The story centers on a Laura (Belén Rueda from “The Sea Inside”) who purchases her beloved childhood orphanage with dreams of restoring and reopening the long abandoned facility as a place for disabled children. Once there, Laura discovers that the new environment awakens her son’s imagination, but the ongoing fantasy games he plays with an invisible friend quickly turn into something more disturbing. Upon seeing her family increasingly threatened by the strange occurrences in the house, Laura looks to a group of parapsychologists for help in unraveling the mystery that has taken over the place.
Check out the poster below and give it a click for the hi-res version. You can also check out the teaser trailer right here.
