Since 2010, I got myself deep into Mexican genre cinema because I wanted to explore the films I remembered watching as a kid and then ended up finding other great films along the way.  As mentioned before or if you’re new to Trash-Mex, I have been writing about what I’ve watched through my old site and slowly (but surely) have been putting all of my old reviews into the new website you are on now.  These 20+ Mexican horror reviews that have been posted this month have all bee

Gym class was always the worst. You have to run first thing every morning, play a sport or do an exercise that you weren’t even good at, the cute as hell girl you like in the class wouldn’t give you the time of day & the more athletic boys were annoyingly competitive at everything in the class. That’s pretty much what  Resucitare Para Matarlos   (aka "Resurrected To Kill")  is all about, except someone dies and they come back... For revenge. Meet  Juan Carlos   (Andreas Pears

You know who's gorgeous & awesome?  Lina Santos ! You know what makes Lina Santos more gorgeous & awesome? Getting possessed by an evil witch in  Seduccion Sangrienta ! In  Seduccion Sangrienta  (aka "Bloody Seduction") , the gorgeous & awesome  Lina Santos  plays  Martha , a wife to a rich man. Martha's birthday is coming up, so her husband searches high & low for a really special gift to give her. He then finds an antique shop which carries lots of wonderful things Martha w

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

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

During the era of The Battle of Ciudad Juárez, A yankee colonel wearing an all white outfit & with a lame hat is ready to duel with a masked bandit wearing all black clothing & a cool as fuck Texana that has a silver skull on it. The man in white wins the duel and dons the Texana since that lame hat he was wearing before wasn’t cutting it. A ghostly woman in white covering her face in a vail walks by the winner of the duel and he chases after her. When he takes the vail off,

Sometime in the 1930’s, a pianist named  Orlando (Hugo Stiglitz)  has fallen in love with actress  Griselda (Luz Maria Jerez)  at the theater where she performs. After much admiring from afar, Orlando finally nabs Griselda and they begin a very deep romantic relationship which then leads to their blissful marriage.
