Charlie and Matt join Caitlin to talk about Huesera, a recent Mexican-Peruvian horror movie that features a new take on the monstrous motherhood trope. We explore themes around identity and family, and we look at motifs regarding spiders, ritual, and religion. Definitely worth a watch. Forgive our many bone(r) jokes and our exaggerated pronunciation. Tangents include: the Virgin of Guadalupe, cool aunts, La Milpa, Christmas lights, Christmas trees, movie sequels, cereal, desserts, soccer (el futbol, as we deftly clarify), weird dreams, signs we'd been taken over by a pod person, sleep styles, and an FMK for comfort items. Shoutout to our buddy Golob, who was named dropped a few times. Nobody puts baby in the refrigerator!

Day 10: On this episode of Then Is Now's 2023 event 13 Days of Hallowtober, Juan Ortiz from the B-Movie Cast joins Re-Gor to discuss the Mexican horror classic “House of Terror” aka “La Casa Del Terror” starring comedian Tin-Tan, and surprisingly, Lon Chaney Jr. shows up as the Wolf Man!! An interesting and fun flick, we also discuss the horribly butchered, unintelligible version of the film called “Face of the Screaming Werewolf!” Definitely a fascinating discussion you should check out! And we do have movie ads for different releases of the film on the web page. Enjoy! Juan can be found at: https://www.5thdimensionfilms.net Re-Gor can be found at: http://www.havenpodcasts.com

El Vampiro (1957), The Black Pit of Dr. M (1959), and The Curse of the Crying Woman (1963). Any horror fan worth their weight in blood knows their fare share about the classic monster films from Universal from the 30s and 40s before they died a slow death. But do you know that in the late 50s and early 60s, there was a bunch of classical looking horror films made in Mexico? Looking a lot like their Universal brethen, these Mexican films cranked up the atomsphere (and the fog machines) to 11, using some of the traditional monsters, as well as developing some from their own heritage. Mexican horror films from this era don't seem to get the credit and notoriety that they should. So we're hoping to help change that by covering 3 that we think are pretty damn good. So buckle up, get your pen and notepad ready and get ready to start down a very foggy path into a highly underrated sub-genre. Films mentioned in this espisode: The Brainiac (El barón del terror, 1963) El Vampiro (1957) The Curse of the Crying Woman (La maldición de la Llorona,1963) Black Pit of Dr M (Misterios de ultratumba, 1959) Night of the Bloody Apes (La horripilante bestia humana, 1969) The Vampire's Coffin (El ataud del vampiro, 1958) Curse of the Aztec Mummy (La maldición de la momia Azteca, 1957 Robot vs. the Aztec Mummy (La momia azteca contra el robot humano, 1958) Wrestling Women vs. The Aztek Mummy (Las luchadoras contra la momia, 1964) The Witch's Mirror (El espejo de la bruja, 1964) City of the Dead (1960) Dracula (1931) The Bloody Vampire (El vampiro sangriento, 1962) Invasion of the Vampires (La invasión de los vampiros, 1963) The Curse of Nostradamus (1961) Nostradamus and the Destroyer of Monsters (1962) Genie of Darkness (1962) The Blood of Nostradamus (1962) The Hell of Frankenstein (Orlak, el infierno de Frankenstein, 1960) The Ghost (1963) Black Sunday (1960) The Revived Monster (El Monstruo Resucitado 1953) Psycho (1960) The Living Coffin (1959) Young Frankenstein (1974) Halloween (1978) Frankenstein (1931) Son of Dracula (1943) Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed (1968)  Boxed sets and film collections:   Magic, Myth & Mutilation: The Micro-Budget Cinema Of Michael J.

Time to wrap up our little horror vacation to Mexico, but we've saved two of the best for last! Both featuring children as the primary characters. Along with a Mexican movie set in France and filmed in English. Madness, you say? You would not be wrong.And with madness we begin! We visit a sanatorium, curious about the methods the doctor uses to treat his patients. However, it does not take longer than a few short minutes to realize that the patients may actually be running the asylum. You too may require treatment for your own mental illness, that develops from having viewed The Mansion of Madness (1973)!We spend a little more time with Carlos Enrique Taboada, as he delivers an absolute treasure of a film. Two girls in need of friendship, find each other and seem to make a connection. Though they may not be the best fit, as manipulation and blackmail do not seem to make for lasting relationships. A character piece, with a phenomenal pair of young actors, Poison for the Fairies (1986) is essential slow-burn horror, paying off with a disturbing finale.And then from there, orphaned children from the violent streets of Mexico, are aided by vengeful supernatural forces, in their quest for revenge against the gang leaders who took their families from them. Again, incredible child actors make this movie a very special experience, as writer/director Issa Lopez delivers a tale of modern urban horror in Tigers Are Not Afraid (2017).

Yo, yo, yo, let me speak on this! Orale! Arriba la raza! Join us as we hope to regale you with discussions of our movie experiences from our vacation to Mexico! There seems to be some debate as to whether or not we actually physically went to Mexico, but this episode covers four of the experiences that we claim to have had, so we'll just let you decide. Folklore, ghosts, the struggle for eternal life, and an odd phenomenon in a bus station!First a bit of classic horror, featuring one of the most infamous legends of Mexican folklore. This has been a popular character to be utilized on film in more recent years, including a movie set in The Conjuring universe. However, this version is billed as the first sound horror film in Mexican history. And with a character known as the wailing woman, this is definitely a good use of that sound! Beware the curse of La Llorona (1933)!A boarding school girl hears her name on the wind, and dreams of a tower on campus that is off-limits to the students. When the tower door is suddenly unlocked, a group of girls who are forced to remain at school during vacation as a disciplinary measure, become very curious about a rumored happening that once took place in the forbidden structure. You know that things are going to get a little spooky when Even the Wind is Afraid (1968)!A mysterious device created by an alchemist becomes the centerpiece of a story with ties to one of the most familiar sub-genres of horror. Sought after by those who desire its power, the device falls into the hands of an unsuspecting antique dealer, and he soon discovers that he may not be able to live without it. It's Guillermo del Toro's feature film directorial debut, Cronos (1993). And then from there, a remote bus station outside of Mexico City welcomes a gathering of strangers during a torrential downpour in 1968. But one individual is singled out as a villain, as it seems he may be responsible for a rather odd series of occurrences involving the physical appearance of the others. What the hell is going on in The Similars (2015)?

By the beginning of the ‘60s, Mexican Horror had developed its own distinct tropes, evolved from old Universal monster movies to create formulaic crowd pleasers with plenty of gothic atmosphere and vengeful supernatural creatures. But by the end of the ‘60s, they were already expanding into more original films that thoughtfully approached terror and dread in a way that's reminiscent of modern horror techniques. So take a listen and don't worry – this frightening trip is punctuated with moments of comedy and romance and endless bouts of wrestling along the way.As promised, in this episode Bart and Jenna brave the unknown and journey to the land of Mexican Horror films to peek through their fingers at vampires, werewolves, ghosts and murderers – all of whom speak Spanish! With luchadors and lycars to protect them, they discover that there's much to love about the genre than these scaredy cats expected.The following films are discussed:• Skeleton of Mrs. Morales (1960) El esqueleto de la señora Morales Directed by Rogelio A. González Starring Arturo de Córdova, Amparo Rivelles, Elda Peralta• Santo vs. the Vampire Women (1962) Santo vs. las mujeres vampiro Directed by Alfonso Corona Blake Starring Santo, Lorena Velázquez, María Duval• La Loba (1965) Directed by Rafael Baledón Starring Kitty de Hoyos, Joaquín Cordero, Columba Domínguez• Pedro Páramo (1967) Directed by Carlos Velo Starring John Gavin, Ignacio López Tarso, Pilar Pellicer• The Scapular (1968) El escapulario Directed by Servando González Starring Enrique Lizalde, Enrique Aguilar, Carlos Cardán• The Book of Stone (1969) El libro de piedra Directed by Carlos Enrique Taboada Starring Marga López, Joaquín Cordero, Norma LazarenoAlso mentioned:• The Ship of Monsters (1960) La nave de los monstruos Directed by Rogelio A.

On our latest edition of The Guest Makes Mikes Watch, Laura Colaneri joins the podcast to educate the Mikes about old-school Mexican horror! She makes us watch ALUCARDA, THE DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS (aka Alucarda, la hija de las tinieblas) and EVEN THE WIND IS AFRAID (aka Hasta el viento tiene miedo), and the movies help launch a conversation about the history of Mexican filmmaking in general. Dive deep into a world of ghosts, vampires, nunsploitation, stripteases, and more!

The jewel of Mexican Horror, Santa Sangre explores Life and Death using Symbolism to the bone . It's the story of the child magician Fenix and his way to adulthood while dealing with traumas, imaginary snakes and an armless bloodthirst vengeful mother devout to a strange cult that worships Santa Sangre. It's a full experience, you will want to look away, look closer, laugh, cry, and get a little scared - or least minimaly grossed out- by the gory deaths. Jodorowsky is one of my favorite directors, so consider this my offering to the Winter Solstice. R.I.P

Tracy and Minki watched a porn on Mother’s Day...or so it seems. That’s right—these dedicated hosts ditched their moms to watch and discuss this Mexican horror. There is definitely lots of nudity, close-up shots of genitalia and graphic sex scenes in this unique film. Oh wait, there was also some murder and cannibalism, but definitely less of that in this art-house, surreal erotic horror. Nice camera and lighting work, mixed with a solid portrayal of a mad man who has a very strange desire to return to the safety and warmth of his mother’s womb (HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!) should make up for the strange plot and excessively long scenes, but...not so much. For the most part, this movie doesn’t live up to its name...as a horror. Though, maybe the word “Flesh” was more indicative of all the nakedness. So, tune in to hear them recount this dreamlike, or rather, nightmarish movie.

In the second installment of our look into cinema south of the border, we head to sunny Mexico!
