La Llorona (1959) review

"The movie is an interesting view of one of the many variations of the "Llorona" legend of México. In this case it is how the "Llorona" appears to each generation of the descendants of the actual movie characters colonial event that started the whole curse and damnation of the main character.
As I mentioned there are other variations of the story, but this one was interesting. There is another that was created in the 1930's (around 1939 I believe) that has been next to impossible to find.
This is a good black and white picture of the 50's era with an intersting narrative at the beginning of the story.
Enjoy.

"A family has been cursed by a woman killed by a town crowd, Luz Maria plays the new generation who's child is cursed to die by the weiler who has come back to life centuries later to carry on her promise."
Mexican gothic horror classic!
