  7. The Horrors Of 2023:

Welcome to The Horrors Of 2023, a series where, leading up to Halloween, I’ll be taking a look at some of the horror(ish) movies that have been released this year (so far)!

And today we’ll be looking the second (and last) non-English language movie: HUESERA: THE BONE WOMAN. A Mexican pregnancy/motherhood horror movie that uses the subgenre to address a bigger societal problem in a spooky and effective way. Now that sounds rather promising…

If you enjoyed this video or my channel in general and would like to support what I do, you could always take a look over at

Loved 90% of the movie, but the film is predictable with neofeminism tropes being all over the place at the end (now that the dust has settled, is pretty obvious with the witchcraft, lesbianism and anti-tradition). I can't condoned a movie where it normalize child abandonement, and less if the child was wanted before conception.

Your review is too flattering…. But I have to admit at least this is better that the avarage horror Mexican movie.

Okay, I'll definitely have to check this out. This seems like the best movie in the series so far. It looks beautiful, and the theme seems intriguing.

I'm personally getting a bit tired of horrors with the undertones of 'we live in a society', not because the topics should be dismissed, but because it seems like a rather simple way to give the plot more depth without actually adding any. Though this one at least seems to put in the effort, very good.

I just couldn’t get into this movie. The beginning was interesting, looked like we were going to get a really creepy antagonist, but then it just became more of a drama than a horror film. It was well done, just not for me personally. The message got kind of heavy handed too. I don’t mind a movie making a point, but weave it in subtly, don’t beat me over the head with it like Get Out.

Mexican women need to realize that they can start an OnlyFans to get money to go to college and get a gender studies degree and teach 7th graders about butt plugs instead of becoming trapped in the oppressive patriarchy of motherhood.

I loved this movie! The lead had a wonderful sense of yearning that evolved throughout the movie. I like that you pointed out the knuckle cracking, that was a subtle touch that I didn't connect to the line from her mother.

You should really teach a film studies class dude. Thank you for doing the research that I was too lazy to do and explaining the meaning of this movie to me. I liked it, but I wasn’t sure exactly what was going on. The hands on the ankle jump scare really got me haha

I loved this one as well Jeroen. Even the title brings with it frightening images. The husband in the film does a great job of trying to sympathize with the main character. Cheers.--adam

I only watched this on Shudder because I saw you were reviewing it. It was so bleak and humorless and not even fun. "Baby's suck, embrace lesbianism instead", that's the moral of the story apparently. Review something fun, like Triangle or Sea Fever, or Night of the Hunted.

Great video. As a Mexican man I must tell you, your portrait of this movie in terms of cultural representation to form a “traditional” family specially in small towns and villages mostly for women is awesome. I usually like your videos, but this one, was specially touching to me. Keep up the great work

I only heard about the hype of this movie but I wasn't very attracted to it, however when I watched it I was very surprised, I really really loved it. I didn't know about the reference to the book, now it all makes sense. Thanks for the review, great video!
