A Vingança da Chorona

This version is worse than the one in the theaters from 2019. Compared to this one, that one is a masterpiece. A 6.5 at best for the 2019 version.

The movie is a low budget effort with almost no serious special effects. Half the time the Llorona is a white robe moving in the water here and there.

The side story of a couple having lost a child feels forced and fake.

The writing is uninspired and the scenes seldom interesting.

No scary jump scares.

I suspected it was going to be a sad effort when I saw my boy Machete was in the movie. He actually is in it until the end. I have a soft spot for home boy but his movies seldom win oscars.

The only part I like is the credits song La llorona by Carmen Goett. Great song.

Crying shame. The actors actually were decent too. But had no serious material to work with.
