Carla Hay Culture Mix 01/28/2022
The Curse of La Patasola is yet another unimaginative horror movie that takes place in an isolated wooded area, where people have terror inflicted on them by an evil spirit. There are absolutely no surprises in this horrendously dull, amateurish movie. Go to Full Review

After a standard cold open and intriguing opening credits., things quickly go downhill. The movie puts itself in a hold it is never able to get out of. Go to Full Review

Charles P May 14 Jaysus H. Krispies this one smells worse than the supposed catfish they catch during the all-too-dull build up. Dislikable characters all around (you'll end up rooting for the cgi hag thingy) and a plot that could be better put together by a grade schooler. It is...BAD. See more nidia b 08/21/2023 I'm Colombian and grew up hearing the tails of the patasola. I was super excited about the movie because she truly is a horrific character. This movie was such a huge disappointment. From the beginning scene when they're having that ridiculous argument to the rest of the movie which was generic bad horror. Just a waste of time. They should have probably consulted with somebody who actually knew about the tale. See more S F 07/31/2023 Better than expected. Great atmosphere and story for a low budget horror movie. Acting was good, monster reveal was a bit hokey but the story made up for it See more Jeffrey P 06/25/2023 A plot without purpose and an end with no meaning. See more 11/01/2022 Ok so the 1st thing you need to do if you are going to subject yourself to this movie is fast forward thru the 1st hour (at least). The Patasola - um - well it looked good for a little while during the end of the movie until you get a long shot and then wow. It was SO BAD! The deformed lump looked like a bad attempt a child made at a clay figure. The script needed help - a lot of help. If you have 2 hours of your life you want to waste then be my guest. I would PASS on this one!!!!! See more fred p 09/29/2022 AJ Jones first directorial event shows a knack of competency and his camera placement (with the cinematographer) is adequate. His acting is atrocious. A terrible screenplay/story along with characters that are not engaging with with their negative attitudes with the world and themselves lend to a bore fest. The action/scares are not any good either. All in all, don't view this crapper unless you have time to waste. See more Read all reviews
