Desaparecer Por Completo

If you are looking for cheap jump scares and don't want to think too much, skip this movie. This is for true horror fans. A masterpiece that left me thinking for days.

Everything in the movie is carefully executed, from the photography, sound design, production, acting, everything checks.

This is the kind of movie I miss, a really well told story with minimal to no special effects. Great slow burn and worth the watch.

Since I have to keep typing I'll just continue to state how sad it is to see bad reviews for movies like this, independently made, casting new actors, culturally charged stories and careful executed... that's why and how we get an Exorcist remade by a comedian.

Wait: you have been gone? No pun intended - also I don't remember the group that sang that song. But it doesn't matter because I only used that for my summary headline. No other connection in that sense. The movie is very well shot - and quite moody! The shock effects are really well chosen too.

If you like slow burning and really character driven stories ... well look no further! The movie that dares ... and dares you the viewer too. Towards the end you may think your sound system has issues ... but what you hear ... it is intended! So kudos for being brave and doing this ... it may lose the movie some viewers ... but it will on the other hand give it strong support from those who will absolutely love it ... we need movies to test limits and go beyond ... which could be seen as a pun I reckon ... intended? Well you'll be the judge ... from bystander to main figure ... what would you do? Strong images - beware.

Watched the movie for like an hour and not even one scary scene. Dont know why it is called the best Mexican horror movie. If it is one of the best the future is dull for this industry.

The pace is too slow and spending too much time trying to show what the main character encounter, but without anything scary enough, no climax, very flat and quickly goes downhill and becomes extremely boring.

Don't call it a horror movie if it isn't even remotely scary. Luckily it is on Netflix and not paying at the cinema, but it can't help but have to question what is Netflix's criteria to pick a horror movie.

Absolutely unacceptable scene of animal abuse and harm. The scene was clearly included for shock value. It was not necessary to include it in order for the storyline to advance. People who care about animals should protest this movie by avoiding it altogether. Now I have an additional 300 characters to fill in order to get this review published. Minimum character counts are equally unnecessary, but I will say that some of the tropes played out here about possessions and curses were a bit tired. The main character is neither likable nor likely to evoke much sympathy. It seems he was merely getting what he deserved, and I hope the movie gets what it deserves too.

Slow burn suspense, no jump scares (well, maybe two). Lovely cinematography. Leaves just enough to the imagination.

Sensationalist photographer begins to suffer mysterious supernatural side effects after continuously photographing illicit scenes. Negative effects gradually increase until his life is out of control and his attempts to handle the situation grow more and more desperate.

I viewed on Netflix, in original Spanish language with English subtitles, which were decently produced. Slow burn movie escalates to a nicely-portrayed climax.

If you're looking for a decent suspense flick, this'll do you just fine. Give it a go.
