The cast has an unprecedented chemistry that is held together by actress Maria Mercedes Coroy and her incredible on screen presence.

"La Llorona" avoids the tropes of horror... Instead, this smart and elegant film feels like a languid bit of cinematic magical realism where strange things happen - and the real horror lies not in the supernatural but in the savage acts of men.

What I love about this film is the way it blends genres... It has everything you expect in a horror movie -- things that go bump in the night -- but in this much more sophisticated way.

[A] taut, effective new horror film.

Bustamante's reimagining of the famous folkloric figure is a reminder that in the right hands, horror can be turned into something with almost indescribably enormous ideological potency.

What stands out about the film is the pain that lies underneath Bustamante's placid compositions-an anguished desire for justice that, like the Weeping Woman herself, still cries out to be heard.
