Ahead of their premieres this Friday on Amazon Prime Video as part of the Welcome to the Blumhouse celebration, we've been provided with exclusive clips from Ryan Zarazoga's Madres and Axelle Carolyn's The Manor.
Madres: "Beto (Tenoch Huerta) and Diana (Ariana Guerra), a young Mexican-American couple expecting their first child, move to a small town in 1970’s California where Beto has been offered a job managing a farm. Isolated from the community and plagued by confusing nightmares, Diana explores the rundown company ranch where they reside, finding a grisly talisman and a box containing the belongings of the previous residents. Her discoveries will lead her to a truth much stranger and more terrifying than she could have possibly imagined.
