I would love to know more about "Los Espookys"---how they came up with the idea, where it was filmed and why they chose to make it in Spanish. Regardless, I really did enjoy it and am looking forward to seeing season two on Netflix!
It's very difficult to describe this show as well as why I enjoyed it. Suffice to say that I love TV shows that are weird, quirky and unusual....and this one certainly fits the bill. It's the story of a group of four odd Hispanic folks who have a business, Los Spookys. Their goal is to use scary gimmicks, makeup and props to make a living. Now you'd THINK this would involve making movies or throwing parties, but they often use their skills for the most bizarre and funny clients--such as a priest who wants to fake an exorcism in order to show up a flashy young priest as well as creating a Loch Ness Monster/Sasquatch type creature to bring a seaside town tourism! Add to that some of the quirkiest characters and situations and you've got the makings for weird...big time!
The show is well written, clever and well worth seeing. My concern, however, is that many folks will refuse to watch any show with subtitles...and it's a shame as you are bound to laugh and enjoy it if you give it a chance.
