Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting This coming-of-age horror fantasy gets bleak, as dystopian tales tend to. But it’s offset with bursts of levity, whimsy, and impressive style that sets this post-apocalyptic story apart, even when familiar hallmarks creep in. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 19, 2025 Full Review Peter Sobczynski RogerEbert.com Even if you have grown as tired of zombie-related narratives as I have, the first half of “Parvulos” will likely strike you as an uncommonly effective variation on that standard theme. Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Dennis Harvey Variety Mexican genre specialist Isaac Ezban’s latest is an ambitious, eccentric, ultimately memorable tale of juvenile brothers’ survival after civilization’s death by plague. Sep 30, 2024 Full Review Ygraine Hackett-Cantabrana What a Scream Podcast Párvulos is primarily a coming of age familial drama, with flecks of zombie horror which explores how world events affect the youth of the population and the changing aspects of family dynamics set amongst a crumbling society. Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 13, 2025 Full Review Erick Estrada Cinegarage Through horror and with a good dose of humor, Isaac Ezban explores family roles and their relationships... [Full review in Spanish] Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Jonathan DeHaan Nightmare on Film Street Despite the grime and slime, Isaac Ezban's Párvulos has a lot of charm. Especially for a coming-of-age family drama oozing with blood and guts and roadkill. Rated: 7/10 Oct 12, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
