Review of The Black Pit of Dr. M

Unfortunately the Mexican cinema is still unknown in Brazilian market, now the DVD's advent it changes a little bit in this context, have been arrived valuable movies lately, we Latin American people are tightly propelled to believe in the ghosts, wraiths, zombies and all stories beyond the grave, it's make part of our cultural heritage, "Misterios de Ultratumba" fits perfect in this odd background, where two Doctors made a deal, whoever go to the grave first should be back to tell the secret to live forever, the elder one Dr. Jacinto dies first, shortly Dr. Mazali makes contact through a psychic where the late Dr. Jacinto attends and warning his friend that cheat the death may cost a high price to pay, even so Dr. Mazali is keen take the plunge, thus the arrangement is carried out, in three months the switch will be made, in the meantime Dr. Jacinto as spirit appears to his forsaken daughter Patricia Aldama, asking for her looking for Dr. Mazali at insane asylum to know about his died father, whom she never knew before, a gripping terror mixing many profane elements utterly entrenched at Mexican culture, cheating the death is egregiously forbidden and noisome for religious people like us, the eerie atmosphere and a well-crafted screenplay beef up the picture, till the make-up is enough compelling, it overall doesn't owe nothing for foreigners terror productions!!

Thanks for reading.
