Sixty T Mar 13 Thursday, March 13th, 2025 This is and has been going on for many, many years. A current story happening right now might pique your interest. Here's an in depth report. https://x.com/Oscarelblue/status/1900045580891742507?t=-jwen1dR0oM6W30fN0lJbg&s=19 There is finally in 2025, an offer from the US to aid Mexico in fighting this shared, insidious, criminal nightmare. Prayers to the families devastated by this horror. Love to you all See more Alex C 02/06/2024 Overall quite slow, the acting was very good and the action was well done. I wouldn't compare it to 'hostel' for me it had a different feel. See more Emilliano Jr S @emill_santos 09/29/2023 Its like a cheap, mexican version of Eli Roth's Hostel. See more mark g @Mark_Alan_G. 04/16/2023 This is your classic "midnight movie." Loved it when I saw it on cable and went out and bought it. It has a very surreal feel and quality acting. Not a big budget but you can't tell because it is so well crafted. OK, maybe the end is a little cliche, but nothing else is. P.S. I was at UT when Mark Kilroy had this happen to him. See more Jerod S @jeroduptown 02/20/2023 It's a grainy rendition based on a sadistic drug lord in Mexico that gets 3 college students stuck in his sights. Ritualistic in part and very bloody, it's kind of a mess of early 2000s cheap film. See more 12/26/2020 There's plenty to love about a stupid, amateurish horror film. Though this might be a little too much of both. They've taken one of the most fascinating, grotesque true stories and made it incredibly basic and dull. Outside of Sean Astin, the english speaking actors sound like they've never uttered a word convincingly before, let alone acted. Fortunately, that meshes well. Because the english side of the script was dribbled out by someone who's apparently never *heard* a living person speak. That said, the film looks pretty enough, even if it's draped in MEXICO YELLOW. Everyone you want to die, dies. And the Mexican sides of the crew deliver interesting performances. The gore everyone talks about isn't exactly European horror levels, and doesn't accurately represent the nightmarish violence of the real Costanzo story. But if you're especially squeamish, add it to the list of compelling reasons not to watch it. The 100% Critic rating for this movie confirms something that Borderland itself manages too: having a job title on your business card and having the most straightforward competence are not the same thing.
