Featured reviews
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.

I don't have words to talk about this waste of time. The Mexico's horror cinema is just an upset...
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 Omen" is a horror movie. "Bram Stoker's Dracula" is a horror movie. This.. Is not. This is a pile of trash. There's no suspense in the air, it's just bad acting, bad directing, bad cinematography, and there's literally no plot.
I kept waiting for it to at least get tolerable. I was bored and annoyed, but when I saw a child being abused, I was done. The directors are clearly sick and need a mental health screening. Again, there's horror films (which I love), and this semi-snuff film trash is not one. The only people who would enjoy this plot less piece of crap are muderers, rapists, and other general sickos.
I also don't mind subtitles. I have watched several great foreign films.
Do not watch this unless you want to be annoyed at the very least, or absolutely disgusted at the worst. If this film was matter, I'd use it to line a cat litter box.
