Can you recommend some spine chilling Spanish horror stories?
Another is 'Rec'. This story is presented in a found - footage style. A news reporter and her cameraman are following the local fire department on a routine call to an apartment building. Once inside, they discover that the building has been quarantined due to a strange virus that turns people into violent, rabid - like creatures. The claustrophobic setting of the apartment building corridors and the constant sense of danger make it a truly spine - chilling story.
There's also 'Pan's Labyrinth'. Set in post - Spanish Civil War, it tells the story of a young girl, Ofelia, who enters a magical but also very dangerous world through an ancient labyrinth. The faun she meets there gives her tasks to complete. The movie combines real - world horror of war and dictatorship with the fantastical and often terrifying creatures and situations in the labyrinth world. The Pale Man, a creature with eyes in its hands, is one of the most frightening elements.
