Korra N Erotic, intense & gripping, The Untamed is a brilliant Spanish-language thriller that's actually bold & unflinching, taking a few leaps that too many filmmakers wouldn't dare to. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Tom L The Untamed is quite an original and compelling film. An interesting exploration of human sexuality against a backdrop of rural Mexico, with science fiction and body horror in the mix. There are hints of Lovecraft with a creature that descends in a meteorite from space, although the prudish author from Providence would have never approved of the graphic sexual pleasure the creature delivers to its “victims.” Enough is left unexplained to maintain an atmosphere of the weird to the ambiguous conclusion, but there is enough substance to the plot to keep one engaged until the end.

Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/24 Full Review Damien B UNTAMED might be a very strange choice for viewing and as such it falls somewhere between SLITHER, THE EYES OF MY MOTHER, EARWIG, and BERBERIAN STUDIOS, in both pacing and the dark, nefarious characters and foreboding plot as it unfolds to reveal more than a few bizarre surprises. It is a fairly slow-paced film, which actually suits the atmosphere and the environment the lead female character finds herself enraptured with and encapsulated by. If you enjoy this, i would highly recommend following UNTAMED with PIAFFE, starring the same actress, who seems to fit into these morbidly skitzoid roles with ease and she aptly supplies the added panache needed to give it that crusty, cringy, earthy, rather coarse, eerie embodiment of whatever character she takes on and becomes in the process. She is very believable and well suited to this sort of dark and weird indie film format. Not for everybody, granted, yet she brings something undeniably unique and different to the table that really makes it work. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/27/23 Full Review Hugo - Shudder F A raw dissection of our most intimate repressions. "The Untamed" explores the darkness we are dragged into when we are not allowed to live our sexuality to its fullest. It is remarkable how sci-fi elements are used as a metaphor to deliver this erotic horror. Utterly risky and daring! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Morgan D A gruesome look into the abuses and dark pleasures we allow because we fear being alone.
