  Solid low budget horror that overcomes its mediocre writing and acting with a pretty cool premise and spooky atmosphere

  “Don’t close the gates, I’m garbage!” 

  A cool little foreign film. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a movie in Basque before. It legit sounds like no language I’ve ever heard before, which lent itself nicely to the fantastical feel of the movie. 

  Sartael is probably my favorite part of the film. In fact this moves could really be renamed as “Sartael and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.” Not to mention his love affair with that one…

  “But we’re not Indians and we’re not Native Americans. We’re older than both concepts..” 

  Watched this for my graduate class on indigenous peoples. Very interesting and informative look at the development of Indian representation in film. Particularly liked the bits with the comedian Charlie Hill. I always love learning about the ins and outs of filmmaking, especially when it involves the representation of marginalized people. Didn’t shit on John Wayne enough, though.
