It’s a rosy’remarkable’fabulous’terrific’preeminent year to be a Guillermo del Toro fan. Not merely’barely did 2022 kick off with his excellent Nightmare Alley adaptation (and its black-and-white version), but we got a Halloween treat in the Netflix anthology he curated, Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet Of Curiosities – plus, he’s eventually’ultimately with regards to’concerning’with respect to to unleash his long-awaited stop-motion Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio on the world. But if you’ll permit us to be just a little bit entitled in/with regard to’concerning’regarding a second, we’d love to see even more from the director – there’s an especially compelling list of the GdT projects that got away: the never-made Hellboy 3, his Haunted Mansion movie, and his HP Lovecraft adaptation At The Mountains Of Madness, the latter of which remains a peculiar ly mythical unrealised film.###Now, in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the first time, del Toro has released a look at some test footage in/with regard to’concerning’regarding At The Mountains Of Madness. Shared on Instagram, he described it as an “all CGI test in/with regard to’concerning’regarding a rig”, created by the ILM team a decade ago. Take a look in/with regard to’concerning’regarding yourself here.###As you’d expect from del Toro, there’s some mind-bending monster imagery here (he really is an ideal director to take on Lovecraft’s unfathomable cosmic horrors), a chilly location that brings to mind The Thing, and nightmarish tentacular action that recalls the beasts waiting in Frank Darabont’s adaptation of The Mist. And what it does reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue , in just 25 seconds of fully-CGI concept footage, is that we’re still aching in/with regard to’concerning’regarding At The Mountains Of Madness to actually exist at some point. (Hey, we’ll also take Hellboy 3 while you’re at it. Please?)###Does del Toro possess’own’nurse more footage where that came from? Will he ever return to Lovecraft in/with regard to’concerning’regarding an upcoming project? And where does he go post-Pinocchio? Stay tuned to see what the legendary director does next.
