With the words “If you cry, I’ll kill you” ringing in their ears, Alma and her sons are murdered in Guatemala’s armed conflict. Thirty years later, a criminal case is brought against Enrique, a retired general who oversaw the genocide. But he’s acquitted through a mistrial and the spirit of La Llorona is unleashed to wander the world like a lost soul amongst the living. At night, Enrique starts to hear her wailing. His wife and daughter believe he’s having bouts of Alzheimer’s-related dementia. Little could they suspect that their new housekeeper, Alma, is there to mete out the vengeance the trial did not.

La Llorona, bot the American and the Guatemalan are boring and uninteresting. It has nothing to do with horror, it's more of a drama with nothing to impress, visually dull, with a flat plot and an uninteresting atmosphere. One of those films that even with a short running time feels like it's two hours long and never wants to end. It wasn't fun. Story***, Action>No, Humor>No, Violence>No, Entertainment*, Music***, Visuals**, Atmosphere***, Suspense*. 3/10.
