There aren't many things that get me as excited as the word "próximamente" at the end of trailer, but the words "horror", "Belén Rueda", and "Guillermo Del Toro" just about do it.


Julia's Eyes is about a woman who has a sister who died in mysterious circumstances as well as a degenerative sight condition. So of course, as soon as she starts investigating the paranormal darkness surrounding her house, someone turns out the lights. Bet she didn't see that one coming. Ho ho ho.


Guillem Morales' second feature film looks very promising judging by the actors involved. There's Belén Rueda as Julia, who's more than capable of bringing the emotions, and also the excellent Lluís Homar, who was decent in both Broken Embraces and Fermat's Room.


Then there's the obvious fact that Julia's Eyes follows (sort of) in the footsteps of the brilliant 2004 horror The Orphanage. Not because the poster says so, but because it was also produced by Del Toro and helmed by a relative newcomer. Plus both films share the talented Rueda as the female lead.


The other major thing the two have in common? They both have rather scary trailers.


Julia's Eyes (Los Ojos de Julia) is released on Friday 20th May. Read on for the full trailer, or head this way to see more Julia's Eyes videos in the coming weeks.

Julia's Eyes

Director: Guillem Morales
Cast: Belén Rueda
Certificate: TBC
Release Date: Friday 20th May

 

Julia (Belén Rueda), a woman suffering from degenerative sight disease, finds her twin sister Sara, who has already gone blind as a result of the same disease, hanged in the basement of her house.


In spite of the fact that everything points to suicide, Julia decides to investigate what she intuitively feels is a murder case, entering a dark world that seems to hide a mysterious presence.?

For those easily scared, the very words "Guillermo Del Toro Presents" make your skin crawl. Mostly with excitement. The new video for the latest in Del Toro's presentational line, Julia's Eyes, will make them very happy. And scared.


Directed by Guillem Morales, Julia's Eyes stars Belen Rueda, who was also leading lady in Juan Antonio Bayona's The Orphanage. Judging from the promo trailer, either Del Toro knows that woman can work those chills, or he's just really good at picking directors who share his twisted brainwaves.


Rueda plays Julia and her twin sister, Sara. When Sara dies, Julia decides it's mysterious enough to warrant an investigation. But Sara was blind, and as Julia's eyes degenerate from the same condition, she begins to see more in the murky darkness that surrounded Sara before her suspicious death.


Not your usual audience-focussed teaser, this promotional video takes you a good three-quarters through the movie's jolts, so be warned of some serious spoilerage. On the other hand, it also makes Julia's Eyes look like another excellent horror movie from Del Toro's production team. Not that we're surprised by that. It does say Del Toro on the tin.


Julia's Eyes premieres at the Toronto International Film Festival next month, so we may well get it at the LFF. You can catch the promo over at Collider, or read on for the full video.
