The Fear

2006

A scrappy Spanish horror anthology that mixes creepy urban legends with dark comedy, feeling like a campfire tale told by friends.

Directed by
David Díaz
Genres
Comedy, Fantasy, Horror
Overview
Three stories with a common theme: fear. 1. “The Myth of Mystic Redrum”: Jaime wants to see the most terrifying movie. His best friend takes him to “El Gore,” a boy who survived after watching the “Mystic Redrum” tape, a tape containing a video that causes anyone who watches it to completely lose their mind. 2. “When The Night Dies”: Jorge murders his girlfriend to be with his lover. A year later, someone begins to stalk them… 3. “Whija”: Bertucho and Jesús decide to use a Ouija board to summon a spirit. What seemed like a joke by Jesús appears to be “real”…
