Why watch this film?
A well-made Argentinian anthology with scary stories that will please even the most skeptical fans of horror films. The production is based on Hyaku Monogatari, a Japanese folklore game in which you gather with other people and each one has to tell a supposedly real horror story. 'The 100 Candles Game' is a great surprise, the directors involved make their debut in directing and it is surprising how good their work is. From cinematography to soundtrack, the whole set is well executed. The only negative point of the production is that despite being Latin American, the actors speak in English, it would be much more natural if they had used Spanish, some parts of the movie are forced because of this. Not that it spoils the production, it's just an observation.

Horror
The Nightman
The Nightman a dramatic thriller that explores the dangerous boundary between love and darkness. The story follows a young pregnant woman who begins to question the perfection of her boyfriend upon discovering his possible involvement in mysterious disappearances and murders, linked to his sleepwalking behavior. With praised performances and precise direction, the film delves into complex themes of relationships and personal dilemmas, keeping the audience engaged in its dark suspense.
Abigail
Abigail demonstrates why we should keep an eye on the director duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, especially when they have original material at their disposal (they also directed Scream 5 and 6, with mixed results). Abigail is a film that manages to balance the terror and tragedy of its characters with the absurdity of its premise, thanks to a clever script that plays with the conventions of vampire literature, careful direction, and a phenomenal cast (led by Mexican actress Melissa Barrera and Dan Stevens) that fully utilizes their roles. The plot follows a group of kidnappers tasked with a delicate job: to kidnap a millionaire's daughter for ransom. However, it all turns out to be a trap: beneath the guise of a 12-year-old girl, the victim is actually an ancient vampire who likes to play with her food. Like Ready or Not in its time, this film is self-aware, pushing its story and violence to the most absurd and fun limits without falling into self-parody. It won’t change the history of horror cinema, but it’s an excellent (and even stylish for a film of its genre, I dare say) choice for a fun time at the movies with friends.
