Featured reviews
I eye-rolled so much during this movie that I almost got dizzy. Generic story with horrible writing and dialog. My favorite characters were easily the monster, the bully kid and the strange guy, all of which did not get enough screen time. The main character was generic and very unlikable. The only good thing about her, is she was good eye-candy.
In the end, I was rooting for the monster, but the movie proved true to the end that it was a bad movie with that horrible, unrealistic story book ending. There could have been potential here, especially with the effects on the monster, but they really went the wrong direction. Seriously, generic movie with barely anything to offer for actual entertainment. Don't be fooled by the fake reviews. Either they have something to do with the making of this movie, or they have not seen many movies.

This is a stupid horror movie, but one you can definitely laugh about. It wasnt boring but could get very cringy.
The acting was sub par at best, the effects werent great but had a very "b-class movie from the 80's" feel to them. Not sure of thats a compliment.
Wouldnt watch again but was alright as a one time thing
A generic horror movie loosely based on a Mexican folk lore tale bad acting no coherent plot and stupid decisions that lead to a degenerate finale. This is so bad I fell asleep the first time and had to rewind the whole film to realise I really didn't miss a thing of substance
I don't have much to say about this 'horror' movie, because there's really not much about it to say. Production value is good, acting is passable. This is a highly derivative, by the book, cookie cutter 'made for tv' job... If you're looking for horror, you won't find it here. This is basically a kids movie, reminds me of goosebumps or scooby doo. Unoriginal, predictable, weak plot, not scary (at all) and just plain boring for the most part. This is the movie equivalent of cheap and nasty, production line fast food. Don't waste your time....
The movie tried to be a horror but instead it turned to be so bad that you laugh at it
Bad acting
Average direction
The director forgot to mention one kid
