SUMMARY

STUDIOCANAL proudly marks 25 years since THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE (EL ESPINAZO DEL DIABLO) first terrified and moved audiences with a stunning new 4K restoration of Oscar winning Guillermo del Toro's (FRANKENSTEIN, THE SHAPE OF WATER, PAN'S LABYRYNTH) highly acclaimed 2001 masterpiece.

Presented for the first time in a beautifully curated 4K Blu-ray Collector's Edition box set, THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE stands as a haunting and deeply emotional work of modern horror from one of cinema's most distinctive visionary voices.

Widely regarded as one of del Toro's finest achievements — and a spiritual companion piece to his later classic PAN'S LABYRINTH — the film showcases his unparalleled talent for blending the supernatural with historical trauma, transforming ghost stories into powerful meditations on memory, innocence, and violence.

Produced by Pedro Almodóvar (VOLVER, ALL ABOUT MY MOTHER), the film boasts an excellent Spanish cast including Fernando Tielve (IMAGINING ARGENTINA), Eduardo Noriega (OPEN YOUR EYES), Marisa Paredes (ALL ABOUT MY MOTHER) and Junio Valverde (THE ORPHANAGE), alongside Argentina's Federico Luppi (CRONOS).

As General Franco's fascists close in on victory during the final days of the Spanish Civil War, 12-year-old Carlos arrives at a remote orphanage for children of left-wing families. Soon after arriving, Carlos discovers the orphanage is haunted by Santi, a dead boy who stalks the building's dark hallways and seeks revenge for his tragic death…

From visionary director Guillermo del Toro THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE is a deeply moving yet haunting tale of war, loss and the ghosts we leave behind.

The Collector's Edition will include copies of the film on 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray, two posters including new artwork by visual artist Krishna Bala Shenoi, a 64-page booklet and an extensive offering of bonus material including audio commentaries, deleted scenes, 'Behind the scenes', 'the Making of' and an original EPK featurette, plus a brand new introduction by Guillermo del Toro himself.
