Great Horror Movie!
7 November 2006
Warning: Spoilers
I think that write an online review and recommend this movie here is mandatory for me. I feel it that way. Why? Because this movie is amazing and people must know about how great it is. No, i have nothing to do with the production of this movie, I'm just a guy who watched it in Buenos Aires Rojo Sangre.This was a movie that i watched with a smile on my face during all the projection, not because the movie was "funny" or "cheesy", no.This movie is not "cheesy" or "funny" in the comedy way. Its pure and hardcore horror. I was smiling because i love TRUE HORRROR MOVIES, i love Fulci movies and all the classic 70s and early 80s violent movies. This movie is a hit in every department.I must warn all the "politically correct wimps" out there that this one is not for you: Its Very violent, bloody and dark. Cruel. sadistically.It also have a misogynist tone on it( i it think that tone works like an homage to 70s sleaze movies from masters of the macabre like Damato and all the KINGS, not to take it too seriously).Anyway, this movie works in a lot of levels. The plot: A group of pretty blonde bimbos are trapped in a big house and must be "happy" waiting for a forgotten primary school mate. Yes, they MUST be happy and follow six easy steps..or they will pay with blood. And believe me, the blood will flow. Uts like a movie made by Fulci in the XXI century, with rage,blood, pretty babes, some touches of black comedy and cool editing. 9/10

Good horror movie
8 May 2006
I must confess that i had very low expectations about this movie. I thought that it would be a bad movie, boring and bad filmed....i was wrong. Los inquilinos is a very good indie horror movie. Its a low budget movie very well made, well directed and with cool scaring moments. Its a ghost movie in the tradition of the Japanese movies like Ringu or The Eye. Its one of the few horror movies from Argentina. If you live in Argentina i recommend you to get this movie, its available in some video stores. Don't know if its available outside Argentina but its a movie that can easily get a limited DVD distribution in US. No gore, its more a psychological thriller than a slasher.

Edmond (2005)
9/10
Outstanding
19 March 2006
This Stuart Gordon-directed, David Mamet-scripted movie was the great movie of the Official competition of the Mar del Plata Film Festival 2006. Its a mix of drama, thriller and comedy, following the "travel" of a man into completely insanity. The dialogs are just outstanding. Every dialog in this movie is hilarious and deep. All in all, this movie is entertaining but not a stupid pop-corn movie like "independence day" or that crap that Hollywood delivers. If you can, watch it. Its worth. Good for Stuart Gordon, who also directs the ultra classic horror movie Re-Animator that features dark humor like this one.

Bone Sickness (2004 Video)
9/10
A great movie full of gore and blood
2 March 2005
Bone Sickness was a great surprise....it is very well made, good lighting (well the actors are bad...just like in all this kind of movies but i don't care about that), but the movie is great. it features a lot , a lot of blood and gore, like no other movie made in the US. Its not like all those bad SOV movies from US market that never deliver what they promise. This movie have naked babes, amputations, blood, guts, zombies...and all very well made. A good surprise. Rent it or buy it...or get it if you can. If you are a gorehound, you will not be disappointed. Good for the director of this, he shows a lot of potential, now I'm waiting to see At Dawn they sleep from the same director.

Great movie in the tradition of El Topo.
15 March 2001
This movie was a big surprise for me in the Mar del Plata film festival. Its a bizarre and epic twist of Macbeth. The production values are outstanding and the directing is just great. Its a movie in the tradition of El Topo(in this case its not a western, its medieval). It has action, intellectual things, blood and lots of simbolism. I Hope this movie and his director will have the recognition that they deserve.10/10. Excelent

One of the best Argentine movies ever!
21 December 2000
Nunca asistas is the second feature from Farsa Producciones. Their first one, Plaga Zombie was a great gore comedy but this one is even better.

Its a parody of horror movies like Friday 13 or Scream but its very well made, its much better than big budget movies like Scary Movie. The actors are great, specially the small boy(Juani Conserva) and Berta. The directing is very professional and I think that these guys are the future of Argentinian cinema. Hernan Saez is the best director of Argentina, and Pablo Pares also. Watch this movie, watch Plaga Zombie and Goreinvasion.

Plaga zombie (1997 Video)
7/10
A great gore movie
11 October 2000
Plaga Zombie is a real underground cult classic. Its bloody, cheap and funny. Berta Muñiz is a very talented actor, and here he gives his best performance till now.

Watch it, and wait for the sequels.

One of the best sword and sorcery movie ever!
27 August 1999
Wizard ofthe Demon sword is a must see for all the "sword and sorcery" fans. It is one of the best movies from the great movie maker Fred Olen Ray (also Bikini Drive-inn, Evill Toons, Cyberzone and a lot more). Great movie, produced by Troma.
