Marco L (CASTELLANO) Hay películas que se venden como terror pero, en cuanto empiezan, sabes que no van por ese camino. Legiones es exactamente eso: un producto que intenta colarse en el género con demonios y posesiones, pero que termina pareciendo más una comedia absurda que otra cosa. El guion es infantil, lleno de situaciones tontas que no generan miedo ni tensión, y que más bien parecen sketches estirados hasta lo insostenible. El mayor problema es que, mientras el cine de terror argentino ha dado alguna sorpresa reciente, aquí todo se siente repetitivo y sin chispa. No hay atmósfera, no hay suspense, no hay nada que te agarre al asiento. En lugar de aprovechar la premisa para construir terror, la película se dedica a poner chistes que no funcionan y un humor que ni siquiera encaja con el tono que debería tener. Los intentos de mezclar gore con toques de comedia solo sirven para acentuar lo flojo que resulta todo. El CGI es malo, los efectos prácticos no impresionan y lo que podría haberse rescatado como sátira termina hundido en lo ridículo. La relación padre-hija que intenta darle un poco de humanidad tampoco consigue salvarla, porque se queda en la superficie y no llega a emocionar. En resumen, Legiones es un mal intento de cine de terror que ni da miedo ni provoca risa. Una mezcla desganada que confirma que ponerse al día con este tipo de propuestas puede ser más un suplicio que un placer. (ENGLISH) There are films marketed as horror that, from the very first scene, you know aren’t going in that direction. Legions is exactly that: a product that tries to sneak into the genre with demons and possessions, but ends up feeling more like a silly comedy than anything else. The script is childish, full of clumsy situations that never create fear or tension, more like sketches stretched out far too long. The biggest issue is that, while Argentinian horror cinema has delivered some surprises recently, here everything feels repetitive and lifeless. There’s no atmosphere, no suspense, nothing that keeps you on edge. Instead of building terror from its premise, the film throws in jokes that don’t land and humor that doesn’t fit the tone it pretends to have. Attempts to mix gore with comedy only highlight how weak the whole thing is. The CGI is poor, the practical effects don’t impress, and what could have worked as satire ends up sinking into the ridiculous. Even the father-daughter relationship that tries to bring some humanity falls flat, staying superficial and never truly moving. In short, Legions is a failed attempt at horror: neither scary nor funny. A careless mix that proves catching up with these kinds of releases can feel more like a punishment than a pleasure. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/23/25 Full Review Stephen G Such great atmosphere already in this film's opening, makes hope to ready yourself for who knows what type of evil madness to befall our characters. There is a generous amount of shamanism and ritualistic happenings so early on, that you can speculate things are going to get weird, wild, and crazy soon. The darkness is making its move, things look terribly terribly bad for our characters in its path. The light must find a way to defeat the onslaught of evil, or there will be death and mayhem.
