Not to be confused with the obscure 1980 horror film.

Sounds interesting, i'm for it.

ALSO not to be confused with another horror movie from a few years ago of the same name about a virus that makes kids murderous. No, really. Look it up. Decker Shado reviewed it a while back.

The movie has been re-titled 'The Curse of La Llorona'.

From Bloody Disgusting:

Jaynee-Lynne Kinchen is the lead in the horror film directed by Michael Chaves. Youngster Roman Christou was also cast in the film follows a social worker investigating the disappearance of two children and soon learns her own family may too be in danger.

La Llorona is a pretty cool legend (it was the basis of a Batwoman story a little while ago too). That little teaser is nice. Plus I think I could watch Linda Cardellini in anything!

Really interested to see this, considering Wan felt confident enough to hand Chaves the keys to the main Conjuring franchise.

 

[Milk Tray Guy]

Yeah, really looking forward to this.

Also, love that poster.

That scene in the car touches a very real fear I had when I was a little child. I hated riding in the car at night down dark back roads. I was afraid to look outside thinking I'd see something in the darkness staring back at me or running alongside the car. I still dont like being on dark back roads by myself. Perhaps I'll watch this at a day showing so I dont have to drive home at night afterwards.

Pretty sure the guy playing the priest played the priest in Annabelle. Wonder if it's meant to be the same priest?

I thought it was the same character but it looks like this movie isn't part of The Conjuring Universe. Weird...

Marta 2 and Tuco, nice.

 

[Kane52630]

He was in The Devil's Candy.

 

[KaijuDude1992]

That was a pretty good teaser trailer IMO. The cinematography looks gorgeous and I really like how that stuff inside the car was shot. This should get some nice reactions playing in front of Halloween.

Just looked up the character names of the priests - they're both called 'Father Perez' (played by Tony Amendola)! Annabelle was set in 1967 and this is set just six years later. We have a 'Father Perez Universe'!

Disappointing they seem to be making her just a generic movie monster, Hill House just showed us how to do horror right and this is not it

Hill House was a family drama with some creepy moments. This appears to be a full horror film first and foremost.
