Original Argentinean/Spanish Title: NECROFOBIA
(Necrophobia)
director: Daniel De La Vega
starring: Luis Machín · Raúl Taibo · Nicolás Virgilio
· Viviana Saccone · Julieta Cardinali
When
twin brother Tomas dies, Dante develops a mania against any contact
with a corpse. But then mysteriously, bodies start accumulating and
Dante is slowly losing his mind. In fact, he seems to be in some kind
of endless loop where time has ceased to exist and he is constantly
faced with the gruesome murder of his estranged wife, prying police
officers and the (apparent) return of his brother from the grave. The
whole thing crescendos into the virtual, bloody manifestation of his
altered personality.
Director Daniel De La Vega is suddenly receiving International recognition.
To date he has helmed only a handful of films, but already he is hailed
as "this generation's horror master." The praise is mostly
because he puts his fingerprint on each films. His movies are distinctly
HIS. And because of this Mr De La Vega has been
compared to David Lynch, Federico Fellini and Russ Meyer. But he is
also doing something else... Daniel is taking familiar horror themes
and applying an unexpected twist. As his films unspool, the viewer often
thinks "Oh, I know where this is going" only to say "I've
never seen that before" by the end.
