Something really bad happened to him, and he's become a cog in this giant death machine. Del Toro!<br /><br />Yeah, I'm always excited for 'relentlessly bleak' but this one surprised me.

And I can say, without the slightest hesitation, I have no f--king clue who they're going to give that to.

He was driven by such an awful thing, and at times was borderline human...but overall, the dude was the f--king Terminator. So intense.<br /><br />I read something about an alternate version of that scene that made me want to cry it was so lame, but what they went with? Yeah, I would have shit my pants in them.brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457418128925003938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369116000753884175.post-89872473144068448032016-01-29T15:39:56.618-05:002016-01-29T15:39:56.618-05:00Del Toro is just incredible in this movie.
