Strangely, La Llorona is a lot more generous that you'd expect her to have been. She honestly reads like a significantly more adjusted Freddy Krueger, with her violence purposely directed at the victimizers, rather than the innocent. I was rooting for ALMA to do as she needed, as The War Criminal deserved every punishment offered.

[@aksprkl6594]

How does she read as Freddy Kreuger in any way? Didn't he molest the neighborhood kids?

[@nigglywiggly3908]

generous?? her whole myth is that she takes kids because she thinks they’re hers. And she killed her own too😭

What a performance by the actress playing “Karen”! From classist gentlewoman in serious denial to povertous victim. Pretty vigorous performance for an actress at that age too.

[@smb20242]

She was even teaching Sara how to hold her breath under water to make sure she never met the same fate as her own kids. Man, I love movies that makes you side with the spooky. Im 100% on Alma's corner for this one. Good job, Alma. And good ridance, Enrique.

Supernatural TV Series also had a version of La Llorona. It was actually in the very first episode. They referred the type of ghost she was as “A Woman in White.” Same premises. Drowned her children. But they mostly targeted the unfaithful for victims.

[@floofydevil2648]

I've wanted to visit that bridge. Bit of a drive tho

[@aksprkl6594]

Yeah, my state has a woman in white too, not far from me actually but I don't usually go on night drives.

[@AmaryInkawult]

​@@aksprkl6594I hiked and I felt this presence in one state. Any time I set up camp along a specific road I caught sight of a figure in white. Needless to say, this is why I carry multiple talismans from various faiths. Not only to perform my alms to the dead, but to deter each faith's Boogeymen. Still, either because of my talismans or because I made it clear I was not to be fucked with did keep the figure away. I still don't want to try my luck traveling along side that road again. And I'm getting into the habit of asking for local lore to see where I should avoid. It's generally not healthy for you to tread haunted ground.

[@scorpionlord9175]

the show Grimm also had her. everything has an explanation, but she is one of those things that utterly baffled Grimms and they had no answer for what she was or how to beat her.

[@Hitoshuratdn]

never realised that was a version of La Llorona. Kinda makes sense, a river/water and dead children too. And the children taking revenge was a neat twist to the tale.

[@babyboy5553]

Depends. Can be Y, Ja or a sound that doesnt even exist in english so you wont understand probably.

[@DemonDante1000]

I think that the one thing that this movie demonstrates, quite clearly, is that Karens, in general, lack empathy, and that is why they are horrible people. Force them to walk a mile in another, much more unfortunate person's shoes, and they change their tune REALLY quick. But, you see, decent people are already capable of empathy inherently, on account of them being decent people.

[@BloodHoundPL]

This movie shows why power is so addictive. A person guilty of unspeakable evil is usually being protected by corrupt law system and their former employees/thugs. They mostly avoid responsibility for anything they do, so they can play god at the cost of the weak and innocent as they please.

[@matthewbriggs9414]

Extremely merciful as vengeful demons go

[@Cutiemuffinz]

Without having watched this movie: I think the housekeeper knew darn well what was happening, and stayed to facilitate it and help get revenge. It was only when the others showed remorse and pity that she helped spare them the fate, but it had to be “Karen” who took him out, the staunchest defender who turned a blind eye had to be the one to finally say “enough” and take no more abuse. As to why they let a man with degenerative cognitive faculties have access to his guns: I don’t know if you’ve ever been around people with Alzheimer’s disease, but it doesn’t make them less scary until they are too far gone to even speak. This man was a tyrant and a terror, and I’m guessing everybody in that house was afraid of him. Just because his mind is starting to go doesn’t mean he isn’t crafty, cruel, paranoid, and just as (if not more) violent. A lifetime of habits trying to stay away from this guy’s bad side doesn’t vanish overnight. Totally plausible he still had command of the house and everybody still feared him in some way.

Is it just me or are we getting fewer and fewer truly good western horror movies now? Like in the last 20 years there have been more horror movies out out than ever and somehow much less actually good horror movies! IMO western horror just isn't what it used to be. We aren't innovative and groundbreaking anymore. Western horror is just so boring in general now. There's like 10 good horror movies/franchises in the last 20 years. And a lot of those movies were just rip off remakes of better foreign horror movies. I don't think it's just a problem with horror I think it's a problem with Hollywood in general. The writing quality has drastically dipped as the quality of special effects has gone up.

[@lordravenblade]

At least here in the US former generals don’t get security details unless they feel like hiring a personal guard themselves once they leave the service and start working in the civilian world for decent money. Or go into politics. Old dude in the movie would almost certainly have had any government issued security removed once he was getting put up as a war criminal anyway.

[@lordravenblade]

Heck it wouldn’t surprise me if the govt would purposefully remove any security in hopes someone would save them the trouble and embarrassment of prosecuting and jailing the former high-ups.

[@placeholdername7797]

on the topic of valeriana not picking up on the sigs of la llorona, i will say it seems like she was raised in enrique's household from a young age, meaning she wouldn't be super in touhc with or familiar with indigenous-based legends that being said, the weirdest part of all this is no one in the family know about la llorona lol. i'm from a part of latin america that doesnt really do la llorona myths, and even i know the basics bc it's super prevalent in any spanish-speaking circles lol

[@DeadlyGhost1207]

The case behind this movie is actually interesting and there is substantial physical evidence to back it up since I find testimony to be absolutely worthless in a court preceding. It is, however, unclear if this was an actual genocide or not because I could easily see that communists could live among these Mayan peoples and even be of them so from a communist vs capitalist perspective the intent could have been there, because there were no clear orders to exterminate them as a people. That being said killing civilians or POWs IS a war crime, so either way you slice it a crime was committed because people don't commit suicide with their hands tied behind their backs or dig their own mass graves.
