La Llorona

Abandoned by his staff, the indignant old man and his family must face the devastating truth of his actions and the growing sense that a wrathful supernatural force is targeting them for his crimes.

VERY slow burn. it had potential,but couldn't quite get there. The acting of the family members, especially the grown daughter,the physician, was emotionless and dry. But interesting take on the La Llorona myth.
I loved this reimagining of the La Llorona. What human beings have done to other humans is truly the most horrifying thing imaginable. Haunting story (no pun intended).
Well made and thoughtful but like others mentioned a slow burn family drama with very few scares. If you know the folktale of La Llorona and expect a close retelling. This is not it
a tight 90 minutes of movie. love the folklore. great acting. good and creepy. will rewatch
It was slow but I loved it
