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.

Very good. Not horror in my opinion but still very grim.

Reminds me of “the devils backbone” from Guillermo del Toro. Love the storyline and kids performance is perfect
