Emanuelo (1984)
Popular Mexican life
I have seen this picture, I am Mexican, and I think, the film shows the most popular Mexican life, in order to make fun of own traditions, language and culture.
That's a Mexican characteristic, it is not my case, but almost all mexicans enjoys making fun of themselves. On the other hand, this movie, show us the nostalgic 80's Mexico, in items like clothing, hairstyle, cars and architecture; Mexico has changed, but with pictures like this, we have the opportunity to see how it was before.
If you have the chance to see this picture, don't expect a great argument, story or acting, just see it to get some Mexican fun. Most people think's that see a Rafael Inclán's film is a waste of time, but anyway, that's part of our own and most popular culture, and we can not Deny it.

special effects vs. simple scenes
We are used to see great special effects in almost all horror movies, but "the eye" confirms that a simple scene, based on a good plot and as well a good story, could be shocking to us, but why ?, also, is very simple: when you see great special effects in a horror movie,you think, this can not be real,that can not take place in a normal life, and therefore, we don't need fulsome effects or sounds to make us feel fear.
"The eye", is great example that movies can be frightening without inflated and unnecessary details,that's why, I consider, this movie a great film.
And just for finish, I would like to say that Hollywood directors and producers, needs to understand, that a simple film, could contain great quality.
