The Mexican Cinema of Darkness: A Critical Study of Six Landmark Horror and Exploitation Films, 1969-1988

by Doyle Greene (Author)

Synopsis

Following social upheaval and tragedy in 1968, Mexican horror cinema shifted away from masked wrester flicks and toward darker, more explicit films, which can be called ""avant-exploitation."" This work covers six of those films, from 1968's ""El Topo"" to 1988's ""Santa Sangre"".
