Why watch this film?
Released in 2006, 'KM 31: Kilómetro 31' is one of the biggest box office successes to have come out of Mexican horror cinema, and with several merits: for a national production, it's a movie with good special effects for its time. Riding the wave of supernatural horror films like 'The Ring' (as well as its Japanese original), the movie draws inspiration from Mexican folklore legends like 'La Llorona', in addition to always popular ghost stories on the road. The result is something a bit weak and not very original, but certainly offers some good scares that can surprise neophyte fans of the genre.

Origin Unknown
Strange Mexican movie, which plays with the most varied film genres and with an air of 'A Night of Crime'. Here, we are invited to enter the life of Pedro Del Toro, a man who is concerned about his safety and the health of his family. From there, we follow this violent thriller, and with still comedy and drama paints, anxious for the destiny of this family put in check. The production has considerable flaws, as well as the cast seems somewhat lost on stage. Therefore, the recommendation is to let yourself be carried away by the story, travel through the dark atmosphere of the feature film and have a little fun.
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.
