This short really does get a lot of props for the makeup done on the creature, very well done there. It doesn't need it or the reason for it escapes me, maybe when this is on DVD we can interview writer / director ( Isaac Ezban) and get an answer. Dark bits on the film like an old grind house movie that was not cared for very well. There were choices made in the making of this story that were odd, shot in a style to make it look like a old seventies film. Little do they know that what the creature steals will have horrible consequences for the pair. They arrive at the cabin and there is a indication from a worker, more a warning that there is something in the woods that steals things. A couple Javier ( Rubén Zerecero) and Valeria ( Sara Comacho) looking to have sex for the first time take a road trip.

Little tale with way too graphic demon junk. Girlfriend to the cabins in the area of this creature we get a sick La Cosa Más Preciosa (That Precious Thing) is about a impishĭemon, an Alux who steals precious things and when a young man brings his virgin The absolutely strange final shots leaves this as one of the strangest tales. The story has such a strange tone and almost no dialog making it interesting if a bit obscure in its intent. When she lights the cigarette she is visited by a foul mouthed demon that asks her, no demands that she do something really gross or will face the equally vile consequences of not doing it. For some unexplained reason she takes the cigarette from his cold dead hand? Sure it is a connecting element and a bit shocking and as you watch this short you realize it is all about the shocking. The third story Drena, 'Drain' by Aarón Soto we see a woman (Leslie Arce) finding a dead body in a hole. The final sequence is wonderfully executed with the ghost reveal being a highlight. I could not find a particular ghost myth connected to the location but the 'Woman in Black' appears in so many cultures around the world I can see this story being built this way. Strong in its lead up shots and western aesthetic it could have had more ghost but was enjoyable all the same. Jose knowing he should leave this place is suddenly in a surreal would where he is seduced by the spirit before meeting his own demise. The ghost (Florencioa Rios) is watching the two as they stumble into the building and it does not take long for her to finish off the wounded man. Since the location is so cool we do Nito exercises it with shots and cuts where it is honored. Shot in the real abandoned hacienda of Jaral de Berrios the piece is heavy on spaghetti western imagery from the first beautiful opening shot to the close up it is really well filmed by writer / director ( Edgar Nito). One of the two men shot Martin, (Waldo Facco) during the crime is barely alive so the second man, Jose ( Harold Torres) chooses Jaral de Berrios to stop and care for him, a place which is said to be cursed. Story two about desperados who are making an escape after stealing some gold only to pick the wrong place to stay the night. Titled Tzompantli for the final reveal it is a dark start to a anthology based around Mexican myths and history. The journalist is not strong enough even though he is the witness. It's effective for what it is but the piece lacked something, no real character to grab onto.

( I am guessing through the context that this is the one they were going for even though the subtitle had a different spelling. When the killer speaks during this scene the writer / director ( Laurette Flores Bornn) uses a modulator in to make the man sound supernatural as he spews on about satisfying the sun and the god Tlaltecuhtli. The visuals are dark and gruesome with the use of a ritualistic stone knife.

One of the Narcos an intimidating man (Memo Villegas) tells the reporter (Marco Zapata) of the story of sacrifice where their group takes a bunch of partying students and kills them in the desert as a way to gain prosperity. It sets up the piece we are about to see and I guess the horror is in the visuals because although there is a quiet tension to this first story it always feels like an inevitable build to a gruesome reveal. Rivers of blood were spilled to please the gods.' part of the voice over in the beginning of this anthology where a journalist tells us the story of when he got to hear about and see the results of one such Narcos ritual.
