Why watch the movie The Grandmother?
"Thanks to the zombie movie franchise '[Rec]', Spanish filmmaker Paco Plaza has become a reference in modern horror cinema, and with each new project bearing his name, the expectations of genre fans increase. 'La abuela', although it does not reach these ambitions, offers a horror story that is as frighteningly metaphorical as it is elegantly presented. The story follows a young woman (Almudena Amor) who works as a model in Paris, but is forced to return to Madrid to take care of her grandmother (Vera Valdez), who raised her when she became an orphan and is now dependent due to a stroke. 'La abuela' is a metaphor about the fear of aging and that family ties become shackles, and although it relies on the already clichéd device of plunging its protagonist into a situation that is not clear if it is real or just a product of imagination, Plaza's skill in generating a truly dark and disturbing atmosphere makes this proposal stand out among so many others."
