We Are What We Are

We Are What We Are

Directed by Jorge Michel Grau

A family of cannibals struggles to survive after their patriarch dies unexpectedly in this grisly Mexican horror hit that offers a twisted vision of family values. Papa always put the, err, food on the table, so now that he's gone, his wife and kids have to decide who's going to take his place. When the task falls to Alfredo, a timid teenage misfit, it sets off a series of events that threatens their wicked way of life. Part of a growing trend of gruesome horror films from the Spanish-speaking world, WE ARE WHAT WE ARE offers a satisfying taste of terror. (In Spanish with English Subtitles)

I like this film... I read other reviews that didn't like the lack of back story, but I personally didn't mind it hear,cause it gave it a gritter feel that way cause I feel a back story explanation would have killed its vibe... cause I felt the story burn was slower then it needed to a back story would have felt forced and slowed it more
