This week, the international horror community has lost a legendary director with the passing of Andrzej Żuławski. The Polish filmmaker was 75 and died following a long battle with cancer.
Żuławski is best known for directing 1981's Possession, which starred Sam Neill and Isabelle Adjani. The film has since developed a cult following, and is beloved by critics all over the world.

Remembering him on Twitter, Guillermo del Toro explained that he was in talks to work with Żuławski on his next film:
