Limited to only 2,000 copies in the US. Restored from the only existing film print. Stars Ramon Pereda, Virginia Zuri, Carlos Orellana and Adriana Lamar. The official "Mexican Monster" is the Crying or Wailing Woman. She is the evil spirit of a wronged woman, who was scorned by her lover, kills their child and herself. Forever cursed and earthbound she is the "Crying Woman." A vengeful ghost whose wail is heard just before death.
This film, unlike the 1950s and 1960s Mexican horror films, is more dream-like. Superb direction and photography. It has that unreal feel of the American DRACULA from 1931. A real early milestone in horror films from Mexico. Includes booklet and optional English subtitles.
