The Haunting of La Llorona

If someone asks me to pretend to be angry I will do a good job and so most of the folks reading this review but the actors of this movie have zero talent they were like hentai or comics characters without souls, just reciting the lines, the idea of the movie was OK but it needed more effort to be at least considered for rating

NOTHING AT ALL about this is good, it is horrible in so many ways. From the script to the special effects of La Llorona, to the bad acting, this movie is downright sad...It's 93 minutes of sheer boredom that you can never get back. You've been warned.

I'm so sorry for this, I usually try to find something positive in all movies, even in the bad ones, because I try to appriciate the hard work of those who made it. But this is a movie I don't see that now. I only see a school project here, and even from the worst category. The story is lame, the acting is horrible with a horribly written script,i don't even see the touch of a make up artist, and where were a professional camera man during the shooting? The camera is shaking so many times if it would made with a phone..and i could continue. It should be a movie and not a school project. I just regret that one hour i ruined from my life to watch it. By the way, the poster is good, it is a shame that there is nothing to do with the movie. Who is the lady in the picture, because I didn't see her in my screen.. (maybe she is not a demon,but a ghost? 🤔 Dam,dam,daam.)

One of the lowest budgeted movies I've ever seen. I strive to watch as many horror flicks as possible because I have a love for them, but I wish I hadn't found this. I mistook it for The Curse of La Llrorona and figured I would go with it anyway. Terrible acting, horrible effects, bad audio, god awful lighting... I hate to hate on it so much, but it really was awful.

Well, I must admit that the 2019 movie "The Curse of La Llorona" was interesting, and when I happened to stumble upon another 2019 movie of a similar title, "The Haunting of La Llorona", of course I was intrigued.

So I picked up a copy of the 2017 movie from writer Geno McGahee and director Dennis Devine. I hadn't heard about the movie prior to now in 2021 when I had the opportunity to sit down and watch it.

But with it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen and a fairly interesting movie cover, of course I gave "The Haunting of La Llorona" a chance.

Turns out that I was not in for a particularly great horror movie. This didn't even feel like a horror movie made for TV, it was just beyond that in the sense that it was by no means scary, and the special effects in the movie were dubious and questionable at best. Initially, I would have assumed this could have been another mockbuster by The Asylum, but it wasn't even at that level.

The storyline was fairly straight forward, though it was mundane and boring. Nothing much of any great interest happened throughout the course of the movie as the storyline trotted on.

The acting in "The Haunting of La Llorona" was actually fair enough, though the actors and actresses had precious little to work with here in terms of a proper script and characters. And that was something that reflected poorly on the movie.

If you enjoy a proper horror movie, then you might as well skip on "The Haunting of La Llorona" entirely, because it simply isn't really worth the time, money or effort. It feels like an amateurish low budget horror flick at best.

My rating of the 2019 lands on a mere three out of ten stars.
