  • Episode 108 El Esqueleto de la Senora Morales w/ Mikey Peralta Jr of Dread Central
    2024/05/24

    This week I'm joined in The Confessional by Mikey P, a creator who focuses on Latin American films with a social justice lens in the horror genre. He has a column at Dread Central titled Horror en Espanol and releases horror and Latin culture content on his TikTok. We delve into the darkly comic world of 1960's Mexican cinema with "El Esqueleto de la Señora Morales" (The Skeleton of Mrs. Morales). Considered one of the greatest Mexican films ever made, we discuss the story of Pablo Morales, a mild-mannered taxidermist pushed to his limits by his wife, Gloria. Can murder be the ultimate act of self-preservation? We'll explore how the film masterfully blends dark humor with suspense, creating a truly unique cinematic experience. Join us in The Confessional!
