Barbarous Mexico
Directed by Edgar Nito, Ulises Guzmán Reyes, Jorge Michel Grau, Aarón Soto, Isaac Ezban, Gigi Saul Guerrero, Laurette Flores, Lex Ortega
Produced by Yellow Films, Luchagore Productions
A dark anthology of Mexican folklore and urban legends that grounds horror in cultural tradition and spiritual dread, blending ancient Aztec mythology with contemporary fear.
Eight tales based on the most brutally terrifying Mexican traditions and legends, an anthology of haunting stories woven into the fabric of the Mexican culture, some told through the centuries and some new, but all equally frightening. Bogeymen, trolls, ghosts, monsters, all brought to life. Time for Aztec sacrifices. This is the Day of the Dead.
