"In Latin America, terror found a place in usually independent but very interesting productions - such as 'Aterrorizados', 'Juan dos Mortos' and 'Mal Nosso'. Now, Netflix puts its exclusive seal on this interesting Mexican production, 'Menendez Part 1: El Día del Señor'. Here, director Santiago Alvarado ('Capa Caída') brings echoes of 'The Exorcist' and 'Deliver Us from Evil' to talk about a priest fighting against a malignant force. Obviously, the special effects are below American productions, which may cause discomfort or strangeness in some audiences. However, those who give a chance to Latin genre cinema can find, in this way, a rich source of daring, creative productions that radically depart from the commonplace of cinema."
