As founding editor and president of Rue Morgue Publications, Rodrigo Gudino is well steeped in the culture of horror films. Shifting from the role of critic to creator has been a long, calculated move. After experimenting with a variety of styles in his short films, including animation and first person point of view, Gudino turned his attention towards his first feature film. The result is stunning and finds Gudino wrestling with personal questions of faith and family relationships on screen while delivering a haunting, melancholy film that inspires fervent discussion after the credits roll.
