The CINEMA CENTRIC meet up for an episode with Grant L Fletcher, a seasoned Comic-Con host who has interviewed Doug Jones, Guillermo del Toro’s go-to creature actor, many times. We dive into del Toro’s deep, unique relationship with The Criterion Collection, how he became the first to step into the Criterion Closet on video and sparked a trend. We also examine his influence on Criterion’s curated releases, uncovering how his passion for cinema has shaped their catalog. And we tackle a lingering question: Why does Criterion still occasionally release contemporary films, despite discontinuing the practice in the late 90s?
