Sacred Mexican Monsters Arrive in Hollywood
The creatures that walk the screen in the series, “Mexico Maleficarum: Resurrecting the 20th Century Mexican Horror Cinema,” have passed Customs from Mexico to the United States to be appreciated by fans and the curious in the heart of Los Angeles, California. Now running through October 27, 20 double programs that take place at the Academy Museum highlight the series made up of films that mostly have B cinema aesthetics, with monsters that do not deny their low-budget bill, coming from either beyond the grave, from outer space or from hell itself.
