Review by Lou (rhymes with wow!) ★★★½ 9
Grandma, how can I make a pact with the devil?
Veronica is a bit of a loner. The little girl lives with her grandmother, and her nanny always tells her these stories about witches and mummies. Her imagination often runs wild, which leads her to believe she's an actual witch herself. One day, new girl Flavia arrives at school and befriends Veronica. Flavia is a much more grounded child but also a little bit naive. When Flavia doesn't want to attent her piano lessons, the girls decide to cast a spell on the teacher, with catastrophic consequences. From this moment on they will devote all their time to witchcraft.
This Mexican thriller is my first by director/ screenwriter Carlos Enrique…

Me encantaron las escenas de horror tan creativas y bien construidas, amé el detalle de los rostros.
La trama me gustó muchísimo, en ocasiones parecía una bonita coming-of-age de amistad pero termina de la mejor manera, curiosa la semejanza con Midsommar.
Tqm Carlos Enrique Taboada, qué bonito evolucionó en el géneroIncluso las dos niñas actúan perfecto, Verónica ya es de mis personajes favoritos de horror, hasta ganas me dieron de robarle la personalidad 🧙♀️

Spoilers at the very end.
Poison for the Fairies feels like horror crafted specifically to strike terror into the hearts of parents.
Verónica (Ana Patricia Rojo) is a frightening, sometimes loathsome child, but the film does a meticulous job of explaining how she became the girl that she is. Orphaned at a young age, raised with something between freedom and benign neglect, she's left on her own to explore, and to fantasize like many children do. Her solitary nature and the resulting hobbies — hobbies like collecting animals, and making up dark tales — leave her further isolated among her peers once she enters school, so she turns to her nanny for company and for answers, building herself a universe…

Review by Blake Bergman "Various Spaghetti" ★★★★½ 3
"Poison for the Fairies" is a 1986 horror film directed by Carlos Enrique Taboada. The film, following the exploits of two young girls and their adventures, uniquely balances on the properties of a supernatural gothic narrative and fantasy driven tale that almost seems storybook in delivery. There is a constant of things being whimsical and the adventure always being larger than life, giving the audience an approach to the film from the element of childlike curiosity. Even the application of fear and horror has a fantasy laden build, with the idea of a central antagonist mostly existing in imaginative form, based upon what a child might think up as a product of their nightmares. Notability, this most symbolic of this…

🇲🇽💀Méjico Macabro💀🇲🇽 #29
La obra maestra de Taboada y sin duda una de las grandes películas de horror mexicanas de todos los tiempos. Mientras el resto de su tetralogía es genial, no deja de ser sumamente referencial. Veneno para las hadas se siente única. Su referente sería quizá El espíritu de la colmena, pero de manera tangencial. Y vive en ese mismo subgénero junto con El laberinto del fauno y Celia, pero sin sus preocupaciones sociopolíticas. Se concentra en el pov infantil, y en lo tristes y crueles que pueden ser los niños. Taboada lleva esto al extremo, relegando a los adultos al margen, excepto cuando son monstruos o dan miedo.
La película se sale con la suya gracias a…
