Something that you probably don't know about me is that I absolutely love foreign language horror movies, especially Spanish language ones. That being said, El Espinazo Del Diablo or The Devil's Backbone (2001) is one of my favorites in the genre. It is a beautifully thoughtful ghost story that puts other ghost stories to shame. That being said, if you are okay reading subtitles watch this movie.
