My guess is that you'd probably have to order it. I'd suggest the Walking Dead Collection box set myself... comes with Let Sleeping Corpses Lie and five other "fairly" decent zombie titles. It's also at a really reasonable price. Check it out.

It's spanish/italian. I've been looking for it for quite some time and nothing! Nothing! I'm gonna have to order it, right? Damn it!

I'm not sure if this film is Mexican, I'm pretty sure it is, but it's one of the best zombie films ever made. Let Sleeping Corpses Lie.

Both look promising but Elipsis looks more like a thriller than a horror movie. It doesn't matter, I'll probably go and watch both of them.

The mexican Dracula movie it's quite good but I'm not sure if it's better than Lugosi's because I haven't watched the Lugosi movie (I know, I MUST watch it).

It sucks that there isn't any more modern mexican horror films. I think it would be really gory since us mexicans are really sick (I know that by watching the news not my own experience).

Typical modern horror could be done here in Mexico but I think that supertitions and traditions would make it more special. Or maybe mexican drug lords (that would be funny and EXTREMELY violent).

There's an old legend or myth here in Mexico about La Llorona (The Crying Lady) which is about a woman who killed her sons hundreds of years ago and now every single night you hear her cry "Ay! Mis Hijos" ("Ah! My sons!"). Maybe she could go killing kids in order to spread her pain or something like that, I don't know, I suck at creating ideas.

It should be in mexican spanish (quite different from other countries) but it would be really hard to subtitle because of the slang used here. It would definetly lose it's power. Writing the script would be really easy because out of 20 words about 15 are curses and stuff like that. Hehe.

Hell, it can even be made about the Chupacabras!!!

I have watched a few that were pretty good, Rooms for Tourists came out of Argentina, Rojo Sangre is a very good flick starring Paul Naschey from director Christian Molina fand filmed in Spain, School killer and Rosemantia: Werewolf Hunter both from Spanish directors and crews and going back to the 70's I have seen Dracula's Great love also starring Paul Naschey. The first two I highly recommend.

Yea as mentioned above The Devils Backbone is something you must see.. Pans Labyrinth is also a must.. Also the classic Dracula the spanish version some even say it is better than Bela Lugosi's.. I also saw a little indie mexican film Vampiros which isn't bad..

Every movie I mentioned is really Mexican directed by and starring Mexican actors.. All Souls Day is not really a Mexican movie.. It has to do with the holiday but it was made for the states..

Mexican horror would be intense, would it be a mix of language or subtitles? either would be kewl. Would it be based on the old superstitions and traditions or newer modern age horror? That would be a subject/topic that would be really interesting to explore.

I believe the movie, The Devil's Backbone took place in Mexico. It is in Spanish, and it is a good movie. Hope it's what your'e looking for.
