It was a long time ago that wealthy land baron El Charro lusted after the most beautiful woman in the land, but his motives were impure and the woman's firm rejection is simply more than his fragile psyche can take. Driven to psychosis by his unrequited love, the unhinged baron embarks on a brutal killing spree before placing a curse on the unattainable beauty's entire bloodline. Flash forward to modern times, and a young college girl begins to experience terrifying dreams of death. When she and her hard partying group of friends hit the road for a wild trip down to Mexico for a much-needed vacation, the discovery of El Charro's reanimated corpse leads the nightmare-plagued college student to realize that she is a direct descendent of the beauty who once spurned the determined land baron. Now the baron is back to claim the one love who refused to take his hand in life, and he isn't above dispatching a few of her closest friends in order to accomplish his nefarious goal. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Critic Reviews

Felix Vasquez Jr., Cinema Crazed
A nonsensical supernatural horror film void of any direction and pure suspense...
-
Scott Weinberg, DVDTalk.com
You have to sit through a whole lot of migraine material to get to the goods.
