The Curse of the Crying Woman (1963)
Jenn and Joe spend another week investigating Mexican La Llorona films with a look at Rafael Baledón's The Curse of the Crying Woman (1963). This 80-minute black and white film is a pretty bad adaptation, but this Mexican Gothic film has a Universal meets Hammer vibe that we adore. Plus: vampires, werewolves, trap doors, nods to Bava's Black Sunday, and an utterly perfect Rita Macedo. Wanna connect with the show?
