Add suspense, a little bit of horror and a lot of mystery and what you got? SOBRENATURAL. An excelent horror film as Mexican as me. This movie is for the ones that are already sick of gore and blood spilling here and there. However, this film's not for every viewer. You need to have BRAINS in order to understand the whole flick. Most viewers refused it because they were dissapointed (lack of gore) and they had not the desire of think. You are gonna have to watch this movie about 6 or 7 times to understand it all (I already watched it 4 times and I still can't find out what was the knives under the furniture for). Most people that watched it says that the end of the movie is on the scene where Dolores' husband's face is seen through a fishbowl. If my memory doesn't fail, the final scene is when Dolores walks down the stairs and leaves a watch in one of the stairs.(I'm not very sure but I think is the same she took at the beggining of the movie). Some scenes are pretty cool, such as the ones where Dolores visits Madame Endor. Some other are weird, like the one that Dolores puts some weird stuff on Andres' orange juice and he end up making mombo jombo with her (Lots of lonely girls would like to do the same thing to a bunch of handsome guys). One I liked very much is when Doctor Riojas visits Madame Endor, in one of the classics scenes where magic and science collides. I also liked the zombie look, I was really glad that the film broke with the tradition of stupid corpses walking without any sense. The zombie you see comes from the voodooh tradition of Haiti. Is just a black guy that walks normally, never on a hurry and that carries a dog. And by the way, the one who played the zombie was actually a woman! Kinda framin', huh? The effects didn't suck, in fact I liked that fast motion camera angles that in some certain moments will give you the creeps, I liked it a lot. And the most surprising one is when Dolores found out that her husband was behind all. That Eva bewitched him and he summoned Naganga (The voodooh spirit) in order to get rid of her, but Naganga told him he wanted Dolores, and he tried to do other stuff to convince Naganga not to take Dolores by making other sacrifices (such as Dolores' poor little pet dog). At the end he gets killed by the zombie, and the zombie killed him in a very curious way: with just a headbutt. He didn't dismembered him to pieces like his living dead counterparts, he killed him with just a headbutt. Totally different, eh? But Andres didn't died at all, because Dolores spilled his body with the powder she smelled and he came back to life, but end up mute...
So, if you want a totally different horror film, Sobrenatural is the best choice. Do you love gore? This is not the movie you should watch. Are you looking for horror, suspense and mystery? Well this movie is the perfect one. I give you my word.
