I'm from Argentina and I'm interested in development of Horror movies in my country, so I was excited about this film. Now I've seen it, my disappointment is total.
The acting is disastrous. Bogliano seems to be so inept directing actors that he even achieved to make Marina Glezer (a talented actress) perform poorly. In addition, one of the old villains (the one with gray bear) apparently dubbed his own voice in post-production but making a voice totally unnatural, affected and contradictory with his character's personality.
The Script is pure excrement (I'm not exaggerating). The main idea of the movie (Women kidnapped with nitroglycerine over their body, in order to escape without provoking an explosion can undress, cut their hair, change position, bend, stay on foot, and even crawl upstairs, but can not walk) is totally illogical. The guy's decision to enter the house and then his persistence on staying there, instead of calling the police, are both absurd. From then on, everything that follows (literally everything) is garbage (I won't give examples because them would be sp0ilers). As an Awful-Script Bonus, there is a zombie-style ludicrous plot element, and a pathetic attempt of transmitting a message about the dark years of last Argentine Dictatorship.
The construction of characters' personality and personal conflicts is extremely poor and childish and the dialogs are surprisingly unnatural and stupid (but not even funny).
The visual aspect (frame, shots, FX, photography) is terrible. A funny detail about this is that the untalented model Camila Velasco was hired for this movie because of her sexy body (huge natural boobs, lovely lolita-like skin) but the low quality of the photography ruined her short moment of partial nudity. The sound is also poor, and the music choices are ridiculous.
It is important to clarify this is not a low-budget movie. 2.2 Million ARS is a reasonable amount of money for filming with Argentine costs a teen Horror movie with four main actors and basically just one location. Actually, what is sadly scarce here is talent and passion.
