After watching the trailer for Guillermo del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth any moviegoer can tell that the film is far beyond ordinary. A creature with horns, houses sinking, floating objects, a dark setting and some chick moaning; or, at least, I think it is moaning. The film features all of these elements and more.
For instance, check out the recent concept art images that have appeared online for the film and see that they are as creepy as the film itself.

The good people over at AICN have recently posted a bunch of concept art pics for Pan's Labyrinth.
Panīs labyrinth is the story of a young girl that travels with her mother and adoptive father to a rural area up North in Spain, 1944. After Francoīs victory. The girl lives in an imaginary world of her own creation and faces the real world with much chagrin. Post-war Fascist repression is at its height in rural Spain and the girl must come to terms with that through a fable of her own.
