Review of

Balkan Castevet

Mexican horror which through the protagonist Santiago poses a criticism on social careerism given that the photographer puts his desire, almost obsession in making a career before everything. The production stands at good standards, the director Henaine shows off a good initial sequence plan where the photographer arrives to take photos of the corpse and the director, even during the film, shows corpses, bloody bodies. In the continuation of the film Santiago will find himself involved in curses and esoteric rites, Henaine through the sound, altering it, silencing it, makes the stadium understand of the protagonist, the loss of his senses, as well as the use of out of focus in the ending both gives a nightmare dimension but also means the progressive loss of sight and the sensorial alteration that Santiago experiences. Throughout the film there are some clichés and moments that are not too well managed, some appearances behind a bit of telephone calls, a corpse that reanimates like a jump scare and also some speeding up of editing during the nightmares which, if it's true, always serve to disorientate and give the sensation dreamlike feel a bit reminiscent with a dated effect. In the third act, when we delve more into the esoteric, with the nocturnal atmospheres the film benefits, the ritual, the goat, the sabbat are suggestive and good moments; in these situations, more breathing space could have been given to these atmospheres given that a certain impact is created. It is noted that Hanaine is not, yet, a wise manager of time but in any case in certain moments, such as those mentioned above, she manages to create a good performance. The film focuses entirely on Santiago and partly on his partner Marcela, therefore the other characters are not explored to a great extent, it is not a problem in itself for the type of film, but perhaps more context for the villain would have given it more depth , in Read all
