The Wasteland

""El páramo" is a slow-building Spanish horror with an utterly immersive atmosphere. The film develops from the legend of an invisible monster that feeds on fear, and from this premise of paranoia, tension, and panic, a spiral of events emerges that maintains an oppressive dynamic up high without losing its strength. The feature is a breath of fresh air within the genre, with very creative ideas and outcomes that escape the obvious. Immersive horror lovers will delight in it. It is also worth highlighting the outstanding performance by Asier Flores (“Pain and Glory”), who does an incredible job and ensures the involvement of the story."
