La Llorona (The Weeping Woman, 1933)

32 Days of Halloween XVII, Day 12
Holsten Pils
The Statement of Randolph Carter

Tonight, we start with another word from our sponsor…a blend of classic Peter Cushing with more modern (and quite silly) Griff Rhys Jones.

Doug Bradley has been occasionally posting readings to his YouTube channel for a little while now. And when you get a chance to hear the original Pinhead read some classic Lovecraft…I mean, who’s going to argue with that?

For tonight’s feature we go south of the border and back to 1933: La Llorona, aka The Weeping Woman. It’s the first screen version of a legend that goes back to the 16th century. And in this case, it’s the first Mexican horror movie to have sound. The story has since been adapted all kinds of ways many, many times. Enjoy.
