Issa López 💗
A decent watch. Nice soundtrack. More of a thriller than a horror. Wish they dialled more into the fantastical element of the story, while dialing up the horrors of the cartel and their impact on everyday people
Not horror, barely fantasy but still a well-performed movie
Different and unique. Worth a watch. Good ghost and revenge story. Kids are funny and charming.
Very good. Not horror in my opinion but still very grim.
