A quality Mexican Horror film that has the elements to be considered a Classic. In the likes of Mexican Horror Carlos Enrique Taboada, this movie has a creepy atmosphere, eerie settings, and a Giallo look that makes the viewing experience truly uncomfortable.
The plot deals with witchcraft and revenge. For being a Mexican movie, it covers aspects that not many movies do: the murder of children and rituals.
But the movie focuses more on creepy scenes that deal with witchcraft. The possessed puppets will always stay in my mind because it's truly a unique element from the movie. Plus, Alejandra's death is truly inspired by Italian Horror from the 70's. A winning formula if you say.
The cast is perfect. Isabel Corona delivers a tremendous performance as Tia Alejandra. She looks evil and indifferent. Her revenge is portrayed perfectly. Diana Bracho is EXCELLENT as always. Manuel Ojeda is good on his role and his death always makes me cringe although it's not very graphic.
The children did a good job.
This movie always moved me in a negative way because we Mexicans have a conception of very old women as being tender, nice. And also we always seem to think children are not dangerous. In this movie, it's proved wrong and thing gets worse when there's a revenge sub-plot.
Please watch this creepy Mexican tale of Horror. You won't be disappointed.
