Finale: Second Breakfast’s Top 100 Films of the Decade (So Far)

/horror visits “Crimson Peak” (2015)

Baddie: Nature v. Nurture Lesson: Have a long engagement. NOTE: Chris, of Second Breakfast, has written a rebuttal post to my critique of Crimson Peak. Read it here. In the time that has passed since I watched Crimson Peak, it’s been very difficult to pin down exactly how I felt about it. I love Guillermo del…
