Snake Oil Salesmen in Venezuela, 21 March 2008
7/10
Author: slipcat555 from United States

This is a black comedy about various con artists who claim to sell good luck, health, and spiritual improvement or enlightenment to any suckers they can find. One of them agrees to be interviewed on TV. Mariela, a famous journalist, is interested in this brujeria because she was once helped by a woman who put her in a trance, and purged her of her guilt and persuaded her to have children. This flashback to Mariela's vision, which includes strange images of the Inca Empire, is the best scene in the movie, while the rest of it is deadpan satire, much of which I didn't get, being a New York gringo. People who live in Venezuela or Latin America would probably relate better to this film than I did and get more out of it. The VHS has no subtitles. Contains some female nudity.
