I learned a few things from watching A Golpe De Hacha : First, pizza in Mexico is pronounced "pisa" . If your cat gets chopped up with a hatchet, then you will automatically receive $20,000 pesos in your checking account the following day. If your best friend, the local priest, and your boss get killed with a hatchet, then you will also receive $20,000 pesos for each dead person. Also, if a guy with big hands starts flirting with you at work, then he clearly wants to date y

Before you weirdly ask: “is this a slasher?”, yes this this is a slasher movie. “How sharp is the weapon? What kind of weapon is it?” , the weapon is a hatchet and it is sharp enough to chop up innocent 80’s Mexican youngsters. The hatchet should hit you next if you keep asking more questions (just kidding, sort of) . Vacaciones Sangrientas plays out very simply like any other slasher movie from the 80’s. A group of young adults head out to the woods for a nice little vaca

Sergio Goyri is a vampire. It seems like an odd thing to say, huh? Had anyone told me that a while back, I’m not sure what the hell people would've been talking about, but now that I have seen it with my own 2 eyes, I believe it. Fuck. Symphony No. 11 in G Minor, The Year 1905: Eternal Memory plays as the opening credits roll & then we catch a glimpse of a very spooky mansion at night where a vampire named Dracul (Sergio Goyri) shows off his fangs and is ready to attack on

In Endemoniado (aka "Demonized") , a psychiatrist meets with a small group of people who claim they have been victims of demonic atrocities. He tells the group he cannot help them with these kinds of things since he can only help them mentally wise, but being the helpful person that he is, decides to bring them all to a church for a good ol’ exorcism or two. In this case, 3 of them. El Troll A woman goes to a witch for help with her drunken husband. She wants him to q

A young thug called El Maya (Alan Ciangherotti) and his group of goons kidnap women around town for money, but as of lately El Maya has gone super weird since he’s gotten involved in brujería and has been killing the kidnapped women for sacrifices to “El Maestro” (the devil I guess) . The body count rises up very high and it’s up to a cop named Rodrigo (Jorge Aldama) along with his partner (that he’s totally banging) to find the killer before more innocent women are ki

Police detective Sergio (Sergio Goyri) and his wife Cynthia (Cynthia Torach) are a married couple on the rocks. Cynthia feels neglected by Sergio because he spends most of his time at work investigating hard cases & hardly ever being home. Sergio’s partner at work Ramirez (Andres Garcia Jr) is also having marital problems and it’s gotten so bad that his wife ends up leaving him to go stay at a spiritual haven that promises "relaxation" & "peace". The haven is owned

Every Friday night, a man gets brutally murdered by a woman that pretends to be a hooker. Detective Acosta (Rodolfo De Anda) searches hard to capture the killer. At a nearby convent, some really weird shit has been going on and it is quite clear that a demonic presence is around & has possessed one of the nuns! And who is the possessed nun? Well, It’s none other than Sister Caridad (Diana Golden) who goes into to town at night wearing a blonde wig & pretending to be a hooke

As you know by now (unless you're a square) , I'm a big fan of Jorge Reynoso . I've watched many movies of his and seen him face off just about everything and every one. In Guerreros Diabolicos (aka "Diabolical Warriors" ) , Jorge Reynoso and your dad with his amazing hair-do investigate bizarre murders & kidnappings done by an evil satanic cult. Apparently this cult goes around kidnapping women and sacrificing them. Most of these murders seem to happen in public places

“I am the new Messiah” says Carlos (Jorge Reynoso) who was in court for the murder of his wife & 2 sons. Carlos is found guilty for the murders but declared legally insane, so he’s sent to a mental institution where he gets electric shock treatment that puts him in a vegetative state. Dr. Veronica Arizmendi (Edith Gonzalez) is assigned to treat Carlos and she sees Carlos as a man with a damaged brain that can actually be fixed—much like a computer that can be repaired. Dr. A

A little boy named Pedro has witnessed his alcoholic hooker mom getting killed by her pimp. Fortunately for Pedro, a rich woman adopts him after what’s happened and raises him in a loving & caring home where he forgets all the bad things he had gone through prior. The now grown Pedro (Julio Aguirre) is a successful lawyer and is engaged to be married to a gorgeous wealthy girl (Claudia Guzman) and it all seems to be going very well for him up until he witnesses a stage

Like The Sinful Dwarf , Hasta Que El Sol Se Oculte (aka "Until The Sun Goes Down") tells the story of a married couple who have just rented a room in a big ol' strange house which is in charged by an old man in a wheelchair, his young brother who's a pervert & has a ponytail, and an old lady who appears to be a companion to the old man. So then ya know, the couple move in the house, have sex, the ponytail guy peeps at them through a little hole in the door, and the wife b
