8/10
Classic Mexican Horror
11 May 2023
I'm a fan of this original 70s film about a group of young women foiled by the spirit of an angsty ghost and her black cat, Bekker. I'm amused and mystified at the choice of name for the cat which is an apparent attempt and fail at an English-sounding name. It would be like me naming my cat Beccia to try to sound Spanish or Italian.

Funny linguistics aside, the OG version of Mas Negro Que La Noche is fantastically atmospheric and easily watchable time and again for your Day of the Dead or Cinco de Mayo festivities. It's worth noting that the plot is fairly divergent from the 2014 remake (of which I'm also a fan). I think I prefer the ending to the remake but you'll have to decide for yourself.
