A vanguard of Mexican directors unite to bring tales of the most brutally terrifying Mexican folkore and legends to vividly shocking life. MEXICO BARBARO presents haunting stories that have been woven into the fabric of a nation’s culture, some passed down through the centuries and some new, but all equally frightening. Stories of boogeymen, trolls, ghosts, monsters, Aztec sacrifices, and of course the Day of the Dead all come together in urban and rural settings to create an anthology that is as contemporary as it is traditional and as important as it is horrifying.
