"Las tías is a horror movie that, while it might seem Mexican (due to its context, language and starring artists like Ximena Sariñana), is an American production. However, it follows many of the conventions of Mexican gothic horror, brought into the contemporary era. The plot follows a mother who, to help her autistic daughter express herself, decides to move into an old family home where the girl feels safe. At first, she does seem to improve, but this happens due to inexplicable events. Soon, the mother suspects that sinister presences occupy the house and that her daughter is in danger. As a horror film, Las tías is well executed in of atmosphere and visual effects. Though its script is somewhat predictable, it will be a good experience for those looking for something new in the genre in Spanish."
