Tigers Are Not Afraid

Directed by Issa López

A haunting horror fairytale set against the backdrop of Mexico’s devastating drug wars,​ TIGERS ARE NOT AFRAID follows a group of orphaned children armed with three magical wishes, running from the ghosts that haunt them and the cartel that murdered their parents. Filmmaker Issa López creates a world that recalls the early films of Guillermo del Toro, imbued with her own gritty urban spin on magical realism to conjure a wholly unique experience that audiences will not soon forget. A SHUDDER EXCLUSIVE.

This one broke my heart 5 years ago. Time to do break it again. Fantastic movie, incredible hard to watch. I cried on that one harder than during my divorce.

way better than it has any right to be. i saw a shidder exclusive low-budget horror movie and did not expect it to be an intelligently written, powerful story that featured child actors who actually know how to act
