Speaker 1: Hello, Hello, this is Christina and Carmen. I thought you
were gonna say an Arthur. Oh my god, I did
that last time. How I forgot? Actually, this is Arthur
and d W. She's so sassy. My favorite one is
when she's like tells Francis to go home. It was
so mean. She's like, what are you doing? I don't
know how she asked like a normal question, and she's like,
DoD are you always here? Yeah? She's definely my favorite
and Arthur, yeah she is anyway. Yes, this is another
episode of a Spooky Tale's a podcast for all things
as spooky, usually a paranormal topic and a true crime topic,
but this month October only paranormal and we are in costume.
Like we said, d W and Arthur. M hm. Yes,
today's topic is the Pelas of Peru. Why does that
sound so creepy? I know, right? But before we start
the topic, we do always have a listener almost always
have a listener story, And if you have a story
that you want to share with us to read, you
can email as Spookyitoes at gmail dot com. You can
submit it on Discord, you can leave it as a
comment on TikTok or any social media. You can DM
it on any social media, or you can call it
a spookie hotline. There's a lot of it to us, yes,
so many ways, and all that information does in the
show notes. All right, take it away, Okay. So this
listening story is from my world eight ninety sixty seven.
My mom is from Alone and she always told me
stories like La Caretta Nagua. I also experienced something called
la Mona and it was scary. Ladies in Nikaraigua transform
their souls into a mona, like a woman monkey. She's
tall and has red eyes. It is done by a
ritual where they stand in a tub of water and
their body falls in and their soul transforms. My cousin
experienced it too. The scene grabbed him from his shirt
and tried to take him. It is said that women
do this to steal things from neighbor's yards, like clothes
and food. In two thousand and seven, for my grandma's funeral,
I was sleeping alone in the house. Everyone was outside.
It was night, and suddenly there was the sound of
strong footsteps running on the roof. The roof was aluminum,
the windows were opened, and I heard her jump down
to the other side. Of the house. Mind you, people
were already trying to get her. Damn. They were chasing
it after her, They were chasing after La Mona. They
hit her with the machette on her ankle. She ran
and disappeared. The next day, some young kids came to
the house and told my mom and Mathias that their
step mom had a wound in her ankle and she
wrapped it and was trying to hide it. Many people
report women doing this ritual to steal clothes or food
or anything left outside. That's just wild. It would be
the step mom. And I say that as a step mom. No,
but just because they're always like the bluecasts or little witches,
you know. Yeah, so no, but very very similar to
bluecast stories in Mexico of them shape shifting into creatures
and then and then like finding the wound the next day, Yes, exactly.
Then the neighbor that you don't like is flipping. But
you never messed with people like that in these places
because they always have much at this. It's like, uh,
it's like a thing. Yeah, it is, like obviously as saluis,
it's a thing to be like having much at it,
but it's it applies to all the essentral America, and
so yeah, they're gonna get They're gonna get the blucas
out there with much eds. For sure, we'll get you.
M hm, okay, well the topic. Yes, a listener reached
out and asked if we could do an episode on
the placas of Peru, and I of course said yes,
I've never heard of those. Of course, yeah, of course,
of course we will. But it turns out that this
legend of Los Pelacas, the face Pillars, has ties to
another legend that we have talked about a long, long
time ago, the Pichtaco. Oh my god, I should have
guessed that, I know, right, But how would you? I
didn't know until I started writing these notes. But before
I talk about the similarities here, let's let's share the
legend of the face Pillars and some encounters, and then
a little refresher on the Pichtaco. So let's travel for
a moment to the home of the legend of Los Placaras.
What is carry name? No, it is the Yuca, LII,
Loretomadre de Dios regions of Peru or dense jungle, especially
these three departments. They're on the border of Colombia. Well,
they're like the Paru side, but they border Columbia, Gracil
and Bolivia, and all three are located in the Amazon Rainforest.
Basically the northeast to southeast of Peru is these three
departments and they're touching those parts of Columbia, Brazil, Bolivia,
and these jungles are home to a lot of creatures
that have spawned so many legends, many of which we've
already talked about, like giant snakes with two heads or
just giant snakes in general, pink dolphins, that's the legend,
the amazons, the pacha mamma. If you just respect her,
she will get you with her duende named but also
there is just gleende's in general. And these lands are
extremely remote. There's basically only the indigenous tribes that these are.
This is their home, and some of the tribes haven't
had contact with the quote western world, but some have.
It's a but yeah, there's a I forgot the amount
of indigenous tribes tribe Scenaria, Yeah, that call the Amazon
their home. And sadly this part of the world has
also faced violence, yeah, starting with the colonizers of Peru
and this region, but also today like at the hands
of organized crime and deforestation, some which we have talked about. Yes,
we have a he studied. It's unknown we talked about.
His name was Reuben. He's the one who Manna has
a song about about. Yeah, Yes, Mana has a song
about him. He is was an environmental activist from the
Amazon and he was killed for his activism to from
the Brazil region of the Amazon. Yes, and then we
have an episode also over at a studio has known
about environmental activism in Latin America and the LATA is
about the Amazon as well. And it's in this landscape
that tales of the Face Pillars group with the first
Support Society and dating back to twenty twenty two in
Peru and then twenty twenty three in the more broader
like world news in English and on social media. So
this is a new lyre yes, but but more recent
tales of these beings can be dated to twenty thirteen.
Juan Serventez was found floating in the Pukuna Lake in Peru.
There were no other signs of trauma except for his
face was missing. Oh my god. I mean, like, I
guess I could have guessed that from the name, but
still that's like so scary. Yeah. Yeah, like the flesh
was removed from his neck up and no one could
explain how this happened. Authorities chalked it up to Piranha's Piranhas.
I said that, I said it wrong. Okay, authorities could
chalk this up. Authorities chalk this up to Piranhas. But
that didn't make any sense because it was like very
precise and they would have just like ate everything. Yeah, yeah,
that doesn't really make sense. Also contrary to horror movies
and what they will have to really people, No, no, no,
don't believe everything you see on anaconda. Yeah, anyway, it
didn't make sense because, yeah, it was so precise where
his flesh was gone. Yeah, that doesn't make sense. No.
Then in twenty twenty three, it happened again, this time
to a young boy in the same lake, essentially the
same situation. He was found floating and his face was missing.
And then again in late twenty twenty four and a
man named Pablo Vardalis was sitting on his porch along
Pukuna Lake. He saw a light between the trees about
fifty feet away from his porch, and he yelled out
to his family so they could come and verify what
he was looking at, like, hey, are you guys seeing
the two lake And they all saw it. Yes, seven
feet tall humanoid figures. They appeared to be wearing black
bodysuits and some type of helmet and had big, yellow,
glowing eyes and stood on a disc shaped platform that
let them navigate between the trees with ease. They were
fast flying through the jungle and quietly again, very vast,
and Bablo, trying to protect his family, went to grab
his shotgun and fired at them, but the pair of
humanoid alien things, they were unbothered. The bullets just bounced
off them. Then at some point they fired back with
what appeared to be a red laser and Pablo was
knocked out immediately. His family was frozen in fear, but
they watched as a pair of humanoid creatures floated into
the sky and then disappeared. And soon these types of
reports grew until it seemed to be a daily occurrence
in this area. The people of the village of San
Antonio de Pintuyaku began making similar reports which were consistent,
and none of these people were talking to each other,
of course before saying what these things look like, but
they all described them in the same way, a pair
of humanoid creatures and all black with the same glowing
yellow eyes, hurrying on round platforms with super speed and
apparently bulletproof, and so out of fear of these things,
the people began to form patrols in an attempt to
protect themselves, and it was one of these patrols that
heard the screams of fifteen year old Talia David la Dias,
and this would become the first publicized, widely known attack
of Los Pelacaras. So. Talia was in her backyard which
faces the jungle, when she felt a rush of air
and she saw the dead leaves in the ground rustling.
She's like, what is this? So she turned around to
see what was going on and she saw them, two
beings floating on a round platform. She tried to run,
but they were too fast. Next thing she knew, one
of them was reaching for her face and then like
grabbed her, you know, pulled her down. Then the other
ground her legs, and then one of them grabbed like
this tube thing and opened it and there was something
inside and he smeared that onto her face, and it
was some sort of like cold cream that made her
face go numb right away, and she heard them speak
in Spanish, one in a Peruvian accent in Spanish and
the other with an American accent. What she was fighting
the urge to faint, and she heard one of them say,
gonquidado nosestanto la piel be careful, be careful, don't use
too much go ruin the flesh on what I know.
She didn't know this at the time, but apparently too
much of that cream would make it harder to properly
peel off the face. Oh yes, one of them took
out a device that fired a red laser, and she
began to smell the burning of flesh, which was her own.
And this is when she realized that they didn't want
to just kill her. They wanted to take her face.
That's what they were talking about it. And as one
of them was trying to use the laser to cut
at her neck, she was able to push off his
arm that had like a hold on her because he
had like one arm on her shoulder. See, one of
them was like had a hand an arm like on
her shoulder to hold her down. And then he had
like the laser and that's what he was using to like,
you know, try and start peeling the peeling process, and
so she was able to push his arm off and
then that's when she was now able to move and scream,
and she screamed and screamed, and that's when the one
with the American accent it was like, let's get out
of here, but in Spanish, and then the other oh no,
the other way around. The Peruvian wie was like, let's
get out of here, and then the American was like, no,
we can't leave her. And then he like tried her face, yes,
no without her face, and then he tried to grab her,
like pull her. But then the patrol was getting close
and closer and closer, and then they you know, got there.
They were yelling like let her go, let her go,
and they began to fire at the things. Oh my god,
so they saw them, yes, and then the pair let
her go and they disappeared into the sky, and the
patrol surrounded her and took her to the hospital in
Santa Maria, Nai where she gave her account to the police.
And she did have two cuts on her neck, and
she maintains her version of events, but authorities, when she
told them this, they dismissed her story. Right away, and she,
of course remains traumatized by this event, and I will
share what they had They tried to explain it away
to her at the end here. But stories like these
began to spread all over those three regions of Peru
that I already named and I have forgotten the name
of but I said them earlier, right right, yes, yes,
and yeah. All of them described these beings in the
same way. Though sometimes they are in all black and
it's like armoring that they have on. But sometimes he's green,
so black or green, but it's always they're always in pairs,
and they're seven feet tall. They're always floating on those
like round platform things and flying at speeds that are
too fast for like the human eye or whatever. These
stories were dismissed or debunked by the Peruvian government, and
this didn't sit right with a man named Timothy Alburrino.
He has a YouTube channel and he's like a former
I don't know, a special force at or remember his tit.
He's a white man and he has a YouTube and
he does things, okay, anyway, important things, Okay. So he
was like, this doesn't sound right, and he went down
to Peru to talk to the locals himself, and he
actually grew up in the same region, so he knows
the local indigenous language. And he was like, I will
talk to them because this doesn't sound right. And so
he learned that a group of students and their teacher
witnessed a pair of humanoids too, and they all told
the similar story that these things just shot up into
the sky and disappeared after they were like caught trying
to take someone. And then he talked to a different
group of villagers from a different town but nearby. There
had been another attack there, but this time they saw
a craft, not just the pair, but like their ship.
And there was other stories of people being hit with
lasers as well, and then the pair of humanoids not
being hurt by bullets seemed to be common as well.
He found that the villagers were all too afraid to
go out at night, and many towns had imposed curfews
to try and prevent more attacks. And these towns had
been asking for either police or military protection because of
what was happening, which was not It was denied to them.
And contrary to what others have said to debunk this story,
Timothy was like, no, these are not ignorant like they
have internet access, they just have to go to like
the town center and they but they watch movies. They
like they know about things. They're not like these ignorant
little poor people like that don't know anything, which is
how they're depicted often. And so he also said that
stories of pelacas in this area were at least forty
years old, that he heard them when he was a kid.
Oh wow, so he can recall that they go at
least back to the nineteen eighties. But elders when he
was a kid, they were like, no, these weren't a
thing when we were children. But he remembers, you know,
adults telling kids like, oh, come home before dark, or
pelad like watch out for the face pillars, or they're
going to get you if you're out you know later
or whatever. Yeah, as he talked to more and more villagers,
and he learned that there had also been sightings of
a ufo that accompanies these beings. It's an acorn shaped
object that however silently over the village. It has stubby
protusions on the side that fold open, and when they
fold open, they deploy rapid flashing lights. And they had
been seen floating thirty feet above the village, always at nighttime.
One fisherman who saw this at three a m. Stated
that it was so bright he thought the sun suddenly
came out, but it was an acorn shaped object. He
described it as transparent, like it had a mesh around it,
and he saw two beings inside the craft. It say,
there for a second before it sped away. What the fuck?
Aside from these reports of the UFO, he also talked
to at least twelve people that had been attacked by
the laser by the laser weapons of these alien beans.
You know what, that reminds me of that thing in
Brazil that we talked about, Operation something. It started with
the key yeah brato or some now was it bla brato?
I think I yeah, yeah, pretty sure. I mean we
can look at it, but it's one of those, one
of those for sure. Yeah, anyway, that's what that maybe of. Yeah.
He also talked to another young man in a different
jungle city, two hours from where Talia was attacked. The
teenager almost died from the cut on his neck, and
he described almost the same incident as Tahalia without ever
talking to her. Similarly, a group patrolling hurt his screams
and rescued him. He eventually recovered, but, like Dahlia, remained traumatized. Wow,
And his interview was Coast to coast. Timothy mentioned he
had not heard of any other attacks since he left Peru,
but I still in touched the villagers. Okay, let's get
into theories. Okay, so theories. Like I said earlier, the
Peruvian authorities told Talia and the villagers that it was
the cartel illegally mining with the jet packs, and that's
what they said, which I I mean, like that sounds
like a lie. Are get packs functionable like that? Like, yeah,
there's fast, there's commercial jet packs now, but they're super
loud and they don't float that long or that far
or that they talk about them being quiet, quiet, stealthy. Yeah, fast,
and like go up so high that they disappear. So no,
that's like that, there's no way that's it. And another
proposed theory is that it was the military, the US military,
And now this one I feel makes a little more sense.
So there was a joint operation between the US Marines,
Air Force and the Japanese military, and the Space Force
was there, like I don't know in what capacity. Obviously
we're not privy to this information. Yeah, but it was
a sixteen day joint operation called Resolute Sentinel in twenty
twenty three, and they were operating out of Ikito's naval base,
which happened to be up river from Dalia's village. We
shouldn't even have a nail base there, No, right, like
white is it there? I think that's a perovn naval base. Okay, okay, yeah,
why the fun they're just borrowing the nail base ye, yeah,
for the operation. And so sources that I read for
this said that the night vision goggles could explain glowing
yellow eyes, and I guess I see it, But night
vision goggles they don't glow like that, like because then
it would make you stand out in the dark, like
it would be true true. Yeah, I know, we had
like all ass equipment in like my unit, but like
so maybe there's new ones, but it why would I glow? Yeah,
that's what I was LETNA say. I don't think that
would be like conducive to a night mission, Like you
don't want to not be noticeable, like you're trying to
remain dark while seeing in the dark, and they're just
like they go over your eyes. But they're all black,
they don't glow. Yeah, so I I don't know about that,
but again, maybe there's new ones. I don't know, it's
been a while since I have used them, right, And
there's also these experimental silent lifting systems, but they're huge
and they look like like uh, these round ass circles
with fans, and they're like quieter but they're like so
rare and huge, but so nothing like well was described
by no military. No, but this is just like what
the sources try to like explain away anyway. Yes, And
there's also like these fancy video game looking suits called
like the tallow Suit, which exists to try and make
like soldiers stronger, but they're not like the average military
unit doesn't have access to these kinds of things. And
I mean, I don't know what kind of unit was
in this training exercise, but I just don't feel that
they would all have these suits, like you know. Yeah,
so that's one explanation, which like the American accent in
Spanish that taliaher kind of it makes sense with that, yes,
in this context would make sense. And if paired with
the Peruvian soldier, like yeah, it could have been. Yeah.
So I'm like Okay, well that that part fits, but
some of this just doesn't to me either. But the
Peruvian government stuck with their story of the cartel, and
there's other people who believe will know, like there was
that joint operation happening too, But there's also like US
special forces were doing something in the area that no
one knows and that sounds a little more believable than
this having been that exercise, because they've done it before.
It's like that that audio. That's like and if you
think your government wouldn't do that, oh yes they would, Yeah,
they would. Because in the nineteen fifties, the CIA faked
vampire attacks in the Philippines against a communist group called
the Hooks. What I yeah, I wow. Yeah. There's a
belief in the Oswog in the Philippines, which we've talked
about I think our Patreon before. But they're like a
vampire like entity. There's like the Oswang is a type
of monster, and then there's a bunch of like monsters
off all under Oswog and one of them are vampires.
And so the CIA had some operatives hide and wait
for the Hooks to pass by and then take the
last one of this group and then they punctured the
man's neck, drained his blood, and put him back so
that the rest of the hooks could find him. And
it worked. They thought there was a vampire, and they
ceased operations. And they did the same thing in Vietnam.
They were in Vietnam and they had this like sig
op I forget the name of the operation, but they
would play like these screaming sounds of like this like
legend in Vietnam. I didn't know that. Yeah, this surprised me,
but I'm just like wow. So it's not for Fetch
to think that they would be here pretend to be vampire. Again,
not to mention that there's an interest for tech companies
to mine these lands, yeah, for their natural resources. And
there has already been attempted cuse in you know, Central
and South America time and time again, you know, for
US interests, which would align with the tech company's interests,
because at the end, it's like capitalism and colonialism, right, Yeah,
and the Amazon has always been a point of interest
for capitalists, organizations and whatnot for the rich resources that
are there. Yeah, and these lands, the Amazon happens to
contain some of the most fierce land defenders. This is
it's their home, Like, of course they're going to defend it. So, hey,
wouldn't it be far fetched to me to think that
there's some medaline taking place in the and after hearing
what they did pretend to be vampires, like right, it
really wouldn't be that chunking. And then on top of that,
there's already illegal deforestation happening by organized crime. So I
don't know. Timothy told Coast to Coast in his interview
that he suspects, like He's like, yeah, it could be
like something that is something that is happening. The villagers
saw something they didn't see. They're not making this up.
This is mass hysteria and it's not the cartel like
the government told them. He believes it's humans with advanced technology,
possibly deep state type operatives. Well, Timothy says, so I
believe him. Honestly, I believe Timothy too. But now I
present you with the supernatural explanation the Bistaco. Do other
people also think it's this or it's just you? It's
because it's they're so similar, right, But I'm wondering if
you're the only one who has made this connection, or
we also saw it liking your research. No, no, no,
A couple of videos mentioned the pistacle. Yeah, but the pistacle,
so the Pelacaras stories all mentioned that these creatures want
like skin, the skin, the skin, But there's other stories.
I also mentioned them wanting fat and possibly even organs
like thecle which ties them to the pistacle, because the
pitchtacle is a vampire, but instead of draining blood, it
drains fat, and so that's why there's a similarity there.
I see maybe either the same thing, but like maybe modernized. Yes, yeah,
this legend of the Pichtacle dates back to when Peru
was first colonized, and I just copying pasted what we
shared before about the pichtacle. But because I didn't remember either,
I was like, well, I want to remember. So the
Spanish retreat their wounds with the fat of their enemies,
which at the time was the indigenous people of the
lands they were colonizing, and so it is said that
they would kill indigenous people, take their corpses, and then
boil them to obtain the fat that they needed to
treat their wounds, but also to grease their weapons because
their weapons would get super rusty. In the Amazon forests
because of the humidity, and the earliest known reference to
the Pieshtaquo legend is from fifteen seventy four, according to
a priest named Cristo balle Molinam, indigenous people of the
area avoided the Spanish and refused to let them enter
their homes like vampires because they believed that they would
be killed for their fat. And this legend only grew
when the Bethlamite Friars opened a hospital in the year's
empteen hundred, and then it seemed that indigenous people only
went to this hospital to die like they never survived,
they never came out of there, so it just fueled
the rumors of all the Spanish being vampires. Indigenous communities
also had stories of something called the Gauchoos or the
runam Mikuk, meaning person who consumes, and in sixteen twenty one,
Pablo Jose Ariaga wrote that the Gauchoos was a blood
seeking creature who preyed on children. The gauchoos were steaking
to people's home and put them to sleep using a
powder made out of human bones, and then they would
scratch their victim with their fringer nail and then drink
blood from that scratch, and victims would dying a few
days later from their wounds, and over the decade, Over
the decades, the gauchoos legend merged with the pistaco legend,
which then created the story of a fat, draining vampire.
I mean, it makes sense for them to fear the
Spanish who literally cause the end of the world as
they knew it, right, right, And this isn't new like
all over their stories like this, I mean even like Guaalaada.
Take for example, like people you know the legend of
the vampire tree. People were like, oh, the Spanish man
is the vampire, like yeah, immediately because of how white
they are, I don't know. And coincidentally, Talia, the girl
who survived the attack of the face Peelers, described one
of them as Spanish with an American accent, which called gringo,
which I equate to white people gingo. Right, And so
then this further makes sense that it would be a
pistaco who is said to be who are said to
be white, right right right. That is the legend of
the Placaras, which in turn might also just be the
legend of the pishtacle like a new take, like a
model take. I could see it. I could see it thoughts.
I just said my thoughts. Oh, those are my thoughts,
like I can see the connection with those two legends
and how it could be like it could derive from them. Sorry,
I meant like, is there any one of these presentage
theories that you are more inclined to believe out of
all of them? Including that it's the beach tackle assuming
to be realcle that or the deep stay operatives with
that advanced technology. Honestly same, either one is equally scary. Yeah, yeah, okay,
well we are in agreement then, okay, okay, let us
know your thoughts in the comments, either on YouTube, Spotify,
or whenever we make a post. You know, I will
be posting pictures on Instagram of what people claim are pelacaras.
I just didn't save any of them to show them
to you, Okay, but you'll see them when everyone else
sees them. I guess I'll just have to wait. Yes,
and with that we will take a little outbreak here
and come back with spooky recommendations. And we're back. Do
you have any recommendations? I do, Okay. I just finished
listening to a book called JUNI. Have you heard in
this book you mentioned it? No, you had just started it.
You were thirty four percent of the way through. Oh, okay, okay,
So yeah, I read JUNI or I listened to Juni
by Aaron Crosby Extein, and it was really good. Overall.
I will say the horror aspect is not as strong,
but the historical fiction aspect of it is super strong,
which I really liked, and I wish it was scarier.
But at the same time everything else kind of like
mixed up for that. Okay, I must have read. Would
you say similar to the Reformatory in that sense? I
think there are Formatory you had more scarier aspects, like
they had more moments with the ghosts and where they
were being haunted by the ghosts and people were scared
my god, and some of those descriptions where like he
first heard, Yeah, the ghosts were so scary, they were scary,
and I don't I was never scared listen to do this,
but yeah. It's about Junie, who is an enslave sixteen
year old. She was born enslaved at the Bellerine Plantation
in Alabama. Her family has been there for generations and
it's been a year since her sister Minnie has died
and Juni is the what are they called? She tends
to the master's daughter, who she considers her friend because
that they grew up playing around, like playing together. And
then the only reason she's in the house is because
the daughter of Violet asked her to be like her
maid or whatever, like her personal yeah and slave person
discussing yeah, and neither understands the dynamic, okay until later on,
but when Violet is said to Mary, she then fears
that she's gonna have to leave with Minnie because that's
a house I don't know if you were to call
her a house girl or because when an enslaved person
like attended to one person, they would leave if that
person left, right, like a girl go with them, they
would go with them. Yeah, And she doesn't want to
leave her to the new household, right, She doesn't want
to leave her family. So then she tries to think
of a plan of how she can get out of this,
and she thinks that Violet is marrying demanding her offer
money because the family is not doing too good, and
so then that's when she steals her this bracelet that
her sister was buried with it was like a necklace
or bracelet. I think it's a necklace and she steals
it and that's what sets off, like itod awakens or
strengthens Mini spirit. And then Minnie sent her off on
this like series of things she has to do so
that Mini can pass on, okay. And during that Juni
meets someone that she ends up falling in love with,
and it's almost like also a coming of a story.
And at first Juni is kind of annoying because she's
like stubborn and hard headed, but at the same time,
like you're in dear to her, and it also speaks
to her to tenacity, and I don't know, it was
really good, Okay. I think that if you're like looking
for something that the horror aspects are not as strong,
but you're wanting a little paranormal, this would be perfect. Yeah, okay,
I do have a spooky recommendation. I watched a movie
called Beelzebus. It is a Mexican horror film, but it
is different in the sense that it is in English
and Spanish. It's set in a border town in Mexico.
Most of it is in Spanish except when they encounter
like the American people helping investigate what's taking place. But
within like the first five minutes, it's brutal, like this
least is the one you said was like that that
you send us a picture and you're like, yeah, it's
not shy away from children being killed in a mass. So, like,
the whole premise is that there's this like, these horrible
things happening at great speeds that normally don't happen like
in Mexico. I mean sure in the US so, but
even then that's a stretch. So the first like in
the first one minutes, I don't want to spoil things,
so basically, children die in numerous different ways before they
figure out what's causing it and what's causing it. But
it's like a religious horror movie, but it's a refreshing
take on an exorcism type movie. It's like, oh, the
Exorcist in Mexico, but different. It was a lot of fun.
Did you ever watch Tenthified the show? Okay, well you
don't know who he is in who Quaking Kosio is
the police investigating these horrible things happening to children, and
he carries the movie so well, he's so good in this.
I don't know if you've seen him in anything, I
recognize him, yes, yeah, okay, phenomenal his performance also the
old guy from Saw oh yeah, although I wouldn't call
his performance phenomenal. But the movie is fantastic either way. Interesting. Yeah,
I highly recommend it, but it's not for the faint
of heart. And also you have to like Campy. I
love Campy, which I know, I know you would like
this movie once you get past the horrible deaths. Oh
of the children. They were just they did not hold back.
They were not afraid to go there like to Grassy.
They went there, and yeah, it was it was fun.
It was fun. I do recommend it. I will make
a longer video about it at some point. Actually I
was about to do that after this so and my class. Yes,
of course, but yeah, it was a lot of fun.
So yeah, I recommend it. I also rented another movie
called Macaio, but I have yet to watch that from
like the nineteen seventies. Also Mexican horror, but I've been
making it a thing to try and watch like a
couple movies a week, but like Venture Out into more
Mexican horror, So okay, I like that. Yeah, and then
I will be making videos about these, so but yeah,
that's my recommendation. Blsa boo bields a booth, bils a both.
I don't know how I say. I thought it was
Bill's a bob bel bel Oh, so it doesn't end
with the b it's a thh Where did it get
bails a bob? I don't know. But yeah, Other than that,
