I loved all the films, and each offers something a little different than the last. I'm looking forward to researching the directors involved and finding more of their works.
The first one - Awful.
The second one has good boobs, good atmosphere n a bit western feel.
The third one is beyond redemption.
The 4th one is gross n not at all funny.
The 5th one is again offensive like the previous one.
The 6th one is unnecessarily shot in bnw. Camera lingers on ruined toys for a long time. There is some creepy music n then the big wtf end.
The 7th one is a revenge story but done very badly with a bit of gore.
The last one is silly but very gory. Its about strippers but there ain't no nudity but lots of gore.
A man's nose get bitten off, another one's eyeball gets pierced, another one's eardrum gets pierced, face gets bludgeoned, face gets smashed, hand gets chopped, neck gets stabbed, neck gets sliced by a barbwire.
Shockingly the end credits goes on for 16 mins.
The quality of most of these shorts is actually pretty good in terms of camera-work and cinematography. The quality of the acting ios decent too, mostly. There's really nothing to earn a low rating on those grounds. If these are representative of current Mexican cinema, they're actually pretty good exemplars to praise.
Now...the stories and approaches to horror...well, that's another issue. A couple of them weren't bad, primarily the 2nd one, set in a haunted hacienda. But somewhere along the line, Mexican horror filmmaking seems to have equated horror with disgusting and off-putting. And that's a huge problem. When you leave your audience more queasy than scared, you've failed at horror. There;s a reason the genre is called 'horror movies' rather than 'disgusting movies'. Your core audience might be somewhat jaded to gore, but that's not really the reason why (most of them) watch.
Just on filmmaking grounds alone, there's a lot of promise for Mexican cinema on display here. If these filmmakers manage to substitute real horror for excessive viscera, I'd certainly love to watch what they put out.
(Also, several of them drag out shots and scenes for far too long. But that's an easily correctable issue.)

It is not scary, nor funny, is just dull and simply stupid, basically all the segments seem amateurish at best, seriously, i have seen better works from film students than
most of the shorts in this piece of garbage.
Two stars out of ten, and that is just because of the good gore in one of the segments.
As a Mexican I apologize to the international horror community for this embarrassment .
Please, do yourself a favor and skip this one.

Mexican origin horror film, the first of which was produced in 2014 and consists of 8 short stories. Eight different directors were told to choose Mexican legends and they shot these legends from their own perspectives. Wild scenes and sexuality abound in the movies. Even though I watched the movie with a lot of prejudice, there were parts that I liked. In places, make-up and costumes were very amateurish. Names and directors of the short stories:
1- Tzompantli, Laurette Flores 2- Jaral de Berrios, Edgar Nito 3- Drena, Aaron Soto 4- La cosa mas preciada, Isaac Ezban 5- Lo que importa es lo de adentro, Lex Ortega 6- Muñecas, Jorge Michel Grau 7- Siete veces siete, Ulises Gùzman 8- Dia de los Muertos, GiGi Saul Guerrero
The second part of the movie was released in 2017.
