Guillermo del Toro’s producer cred on the upcoming remake of The Orphanage isn’t just for show–he’s flexing some muscle on that set. So much so, in point of fact, that he’s actually hand-picked the director. Guess who’s handling the role?
Larry Fessenden.
That thrill you just felt running down your spine was the thrill of the likelihood that you will be watching a good movie when it finally comes out. Larry Fessenden is a name to conjure with in the horror movie circles–a veteran horror director, writer and actor, even if primarily in the low budget field.
There’s lots of reason to be encouraged by this, even if we’re going to have a good long while to wait. There’s not even specific word out on when the script will be ready. But with del Toro clearly in a mood to run the show and Fessenden taking over on direction, we should have a beauty of a piece…when it finally shows up.
