Espinof recommends…
‘The grandmother’
LA ABUELA by Paco Plaza, with a script by Carlos Vermut, a great geriatric horror film that competed in the official sections of the San Sebastián and Sitges Festivals, about a model who returns to Madrid to find someone to take care of her grandmother, who raised her as a daughter, and her visit turns into a nightmare. It combines the fear of old age with ancestral occultism, disseminating keys and clues in a chamber piece that hides much more than it appears at first sight.
Liked by Jorge Loser | Criticism | Friday in Filmin
‘Trolls 2: World Tour’
Sequel to the 2016 animated film ‘Trolls’, this second part brings back Poppy and the rest of the trolls to expand the world presented in the first: rock trolls, country trolls, funk trolls… even reggaetoneros. This follow-up returns with more songs, more self-aware humor and combines good vibes with a fun and ironic take on the music industry.
