Directed by Stim Segar This is an outstanding Mexican horror movie, moody and atmospheric and creepy as hell, combining the best cliches of gothic horror with a somewhat perverse sense of sexual decadance and repressed lesbianism, reveling in the dark side of female empowerment and extended families. The pre-credits teaser opens with a close-up of the grotesque face of a woman (Rita Macedo) with a distorted grimace and bloated, swollen eyes. The murder of the coach riders) is dynamic and gripping. Rita Macedo, made-up as the Crying Woman, has a face of pained evil that reminds us of Mr. Sardonicus and Dorian Gray, indicative of both madness and posession. The photography is great, spooky and grim, featuring lots of fun zoom shots which add dramatic emphasis to already-lurid scenes. The “occult montage ” scene is breathtaking in its otherworldy creepiness. There’s some incredible shots of Thelma’s cheesy model house collapsing, and a powerful score by Gustavo Cesar Carrion. The f/x are excellent (the dungeon set is great, full of cobwebs and torture devices and occult paraphenalia and big gears for the bell). Even the make-up is fantastic. Ms. Macedo’s eyes, when posessed, are so eerie as to be painful.
THE CURSE OF THE CRYING WOMAN is a winner all the way.

Reviews for "The Sobbing Woman Curse: Sifting Through the Legends"
1. Mark - 2/5
I was really disappointed with "The Curse of the Sobbing Woman". The storyline was confusing and had too many unnecessary subplots that didn't add anything to the main plot. The acting was mediocre at best, and I found it difficult to connect with any of the characters. The scares were predictable, and the film relied too heavily on cheap jump scares instead of building real tension. Overall, it was a forgettable and underwhelming horror film.
2. Sarah - 1/5
I regret watching "The Curse of the Sobbing Woman". The plot was unoriginal and full of clichés. The performances were lackluster, and the dialogue felt forced and artificial. There were several plot holes that were never resolved, leaving me feeling unsatisfied. The direction and cinematography were also subpar, making the film visually uninteresting. I would not recommend wasting your time on this movie if you're looking for a good horror experience.
3. James - 2.5/5
"The Curse of the Sobbing Woman" had potential, but it ultimately fell flat. The pacing was inconsistent, with slow moments that dragged on for too long and fast-paced moments that were hard to keep up with. The scares were predictable, and there was a lack of originality in the overall concept. The film tried too hard to be terrifying but ended up feeling contrived and cheap. While it had its moments, it couldn't live up to its potential as a truly frightening horror film.
