This year is the 20th anniversary of Guillermo del Toro’s film Pan’s Labyrinth, an incredible tale of about a young girl who is battling three different trials in a fantasy world, while dealing with something even more terrifying… reality. Especially when that reality is during war time and your new stepfather is one sadistic SOB. The film won the Academy Award for Best Achievement in Cinematography, Best Art Direction, and Best Makeup, and had been nominated for Best Original Screenplay, Original Score, and Best Foreign Language Film. But at the Ariel Awards, Mexico’s Oscars, it won Best Picture, Best Direction, Best Actress (Mejor Actriz – Mercedes), Best Cinematography, Best Score, Best Art Direction, Best Costume Design, Best Makeup, and Best Special Effects, and was nominated in three other categories.

So it seems that it wasn’t just me who absolutely loved this film, and it still remains as one of my favorites of del Toro’s work. In fact, I even have the Faun tattooed on my arm, along with the quote from del Toro “Unlike a maze, a labyrinth is a constant transit. It’s about finding, not losing, your way.” Words to remember.

But this October, they not only will be re-releasing this film to theaters, but it will be in 4K and in 3D! Plus, there will be a new 20th Anniversary Edition 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray, packed with all new behind-the-scenes features and extras. This will be on October 9th, so mark your calendar because you will not want to miss this opportunity., You can see the trailer for this special release below.
