Párvulos Movie Review
Mexican director Isaac Ezban returns to Fantastic Fest this year with his new post-zombie-apocalypse film Párvulos. The story centers around a house in the middle of nowhere where a teen boy and his two much younger brothers eke out a scant survival. Both parents are gone, ostensibly dead but it appears as if they don’t know for sure. They hunt simple game, like domesticated dogs who wander about ownerless, frogs, and the like, while dodging any other survivors and maybe hoping the government will come up with a cure at some point? But when a young girl survivor makes it past their defenses and maybe somewhat into their trust, how long before she finds out what they’re keeping in the basement? Chris and Wright review Párvulos at Fantastic Fest 2024!
DIRECTED BY: Isaac Ezban
STARRING: Carla Adell, Mateo Ortega Casillas, Leonardo Cervantes, Farid Escalante Correa, Norma Flores, Noé Hernández, Horacio F. Lazo, Juan Carlos Remolina
YOUR REVIEWERS
Christopher Lawrence Cox (Founder, Da Boss)
Born in the wilds of northern Virginia, Chris managed to put all of his survival skills to use and barely escaped with his life to Austin Texas in 1992 where ever since he’s dabbled in everything from plumber’s assistant to sandwich maker, from band to bar management. An opportunity to see theatrical release films for free by becoming a critic on a local public access show called “The Reel Deal” turned into a full-time job when Chris and his friends decided to take it to the internet. They built the site Spill.com, adding multiple podcasts and animated features, to no small amount of success. During this time, a fortuitous friendship sprung up between Chris and young Brian Salisbury, who was also a local film critic, and they merged their forces of will, and their laundry list of ideas for shows, to eventually build this community of critics. While Brian eventually followed his heart to a new family, Chris continues on with a cast of colorful folks from all over the country (and a few others). You can also check out Chris in his videocast, along with Martin Thomas and Danni Danger, that One Of Us does with our friends at Bell of Lost Souls: Crossover Event. He also regularly guests on the video game website Rage Select. Follow Chris on Twitter and Facebook and check out his Amazon Wish List.
Wright Sulek (Screener Squad, Digital Noise, Highly Suspect Reviews, Trash in the Can, Audio Editor)
Wright hails from the northern suburbs of Dallas, Texas. His passion for filmmaking brought him to Austin to study and make movies. Since then he’s had his hand in acting, writing, and directing his own short films with numerous like-minded film geeks he’s met along his journey. His newest interest has brought him into the podcasting world. He co-hosted a few different movie related podcasts such as ‘And Now This’ and ‘The Match Cut’. He currently co-hosts with longtime friend, Eric Samaniego, where they talk shop about the grimiest, trashiest, lost gems of movies on their show, ‘Trash in the Can’. Wright also guests and hosts reviews on Screener Squad and Highly Suspect Reviews as well as co-hosts Digital Noise with Chris Cox.
