In case you didn’t think Guillermo del Toro wasn’t busy enough in post-production for his “gothic romance” CRIMSON PEAK, the man will also be gearing up to go into pre-production on PACIFIC RIM 2 but not before helping out the fellow filmmaker in a little horror film contest being sponsored by Legendary Pictures and YouTube.
