Michael Chaves is no James Wan, but he wields the camera with a purpose that captures the tension and scares to their fullest capabilities, despite the yawn-inducing script that wastes most of its potential on repeat jumps and very minor plot development.

But is it worth a watch? It’s cheesy as hell, not exactly high-brow and full of stock horror tricks. But you’ll leave uttering “¡Dios mío!” and hankering for nachos. Read more

The solid main cast deserve better from their writers as the generic screenplay fails to inspire any actual scares or worthwhile family drama. Read more

Despite a lack of originality and substance, The Curse of La Llorona makes for an entertaining funhouse ride of a movie set in The Conjuring universe. Read more

There were so many possibilities and directions that this film could’ve taken but, instead, it went the generic horror route. Overall, it’s kind of like The Conjuring meets The Ring but nowhere near as good as either of those films. Read more

For all its rigid formulaic filmmaking, the movie plays laughably loose with the rules of its mythos. La Llorona is essentially a spirit who can materialise out of thin air, yet in the silliest climax yet seen in this very silly franchise, characters thwart the ghoul by closing doors and windows on her.

Maar ook de overtuigende make-up en visuele effecten zorgen voor veel kijkplezier. Het is een bewuste keuze geweest om veelal in het donker te filmen, maar juist door de duistere scènes is het iets lastiger te volgen wat er precies gaande is en dat maakt de film een stuk enger.

De spanning valt weg en blijven we achter met een cliché horrorverhaal en personages die uiteraard domme beslissingen maken. Read more

The Curse of Llorona verzandt in een overschot aan losse eindjes en gebrek aan logica. Read more
