Violencia Sin Tregua (1990)
It’s your birthday & you still go to work, your wife made tuna sandwiches for lunch despite not liking tuna, but at least there’s a nice can of tomato juice to go along with it. The tires from your car got jacked, but that’s okay because you can just take a metro van ride to work. Maybe you’ll have to walk a little distance to work still, but that’s fine because your co-workers are throwing you a bash at the office so it’s gonna be a total chill day. You then suddenly witnes

Placer y Muerte (1996)
Remember that horror-thriller Angeles De La Muerte starring Patricia Rivera & Diana Ferreti? Well 3 years after its release it got a really random videohome remake and instead of 2 lovely & crazy ladies with switchblades, it is now 2 dudes with 1 big knife and timid acting. One of them being Sergio Goyri. Weird, huh? Two brothers "Raymundo" (Sergio Goyri) & "Hilario" (Jose Luis Becerra) prowl the streets at night looking for loose women to kill as an act of revenge for the

Crack: Vicio Mortal (1991)
Crack: Vicio Mortal is about the dangers of the notorious drug " crack cocaine" and it all takes place in the ghetto (Galveston, TX to be exact) and they make sure you know this by filming the opening credits in all-black neighborhood where things supposedly appear to be rough, but really everyone around the neighborhood is just chilling. This all goes on while Too Short’s “The Ghetto” plays. Let me be frank though, this opening credit scene was truly done in poor taste

Resucitare Para Matarlos (1990)
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

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

Sed De Venganza (1988)
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
