To F Que sorpresa me lleve. Es tan intensa e inquietante. En momentos parece que las cosas se calman pero es cuando más cabron esta. Sin duda es suspenso y miedo de calidad. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/23/25 Full Review Dustin S It’s a lot. It’s a lot, a lot. Pretty damn tense and a great premise. I think people who are traumatized just missed the comedy part. It’s genius. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/08/25 Full Review Tom L Fiendishly clever movie, with masterful acting, direction, and atmosphere. Be warned that the plot involves the accidental death of an infant in a very gruesome manner, although only vague hints are actually shown on screen. Although it’s a very dark and upsetting subject matter, it rises above any hint of torture porn and concentrates on the fraught human relationships and reactions to the tragedy. Believe it or not, the film also achieves effective black humor in places, something very difficult to pull off with this particular story line. Not for the squeamish or easily upset, but if you are a veteran of horror cinema, I highly recommend this one. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/27/25 Full Review Hugo S Jesús and Maria argue over the purchase of a coffee table for their new apartment. Against his wife's wish, the man decides to buy the piece of furniture. Once back home, the first-time dad suffers a fatal accident with the newborn child, triggering a series of events that are beyond the worst nightmare of any parent. "The Coffee Table" is one of the strangest and most disturbing horror movies of 2023. The plot uses black humour to tackle the terrifying challenges of parenthood. The shocking ending leaves a long-lasting impression on the audience! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/31/25 Full Review Gonzalo G This movie is not an horror film. It doesn't scare the audience. It starts as a dark comedy and ends as a psychological drama. The second part of the movie is a continuous cliffhanger with no plot twist. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/25/25 Full Review Zsófi N Sorry to upset any family-friendly stomachs but this is a perfectly enjoyable masterpiece. Everything and everyone wound up to perfection, from the delightfully insincere store salesman, down through the neighbours and on to just how much truth and pain society is willing to make us hide for a perfectly pleasant social front / family event. The intro and end scene couple up seamlessly and the "real" dramatic climax is purposely muted and brilliantly filmed through taut up-closes. I see this as a nod to Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf but with more of the old-world Spanish flair for the grotesque. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/22/25 Full Review Read all reviews
