way better than it has any right to be. i saw a shidder exclusive low-budget horror movie and did not expect it to be an intelligently written, powerful story that featured child actors who actually know how to act
Cried a river at the end. 100% recommended!
that was pretty good
Not everything on Shudder has to be a horror movie. If you go into this with an open mind you will be richly rewarded. An emotional heartfelt fairy tale set in the mean streets of Mexico. The child actors are magnificent. This is a masterpiece of story telling.
Great movie,
