Fiction written, directed and starring Hernán Castellano, mythologized as one of the missing links in Chilean horror cinema. A mixture of folk horror and satire, the plot presents an alien vampire who, traveling through the galaxy, lands in his grave in Santiago, Chile. Its subtitle of "Escenita Criolla" reflects the character of its modest production and nods to socio-cultural elements of the country. After the coup d'état, the 16 mm copy was buried in the courtyard of the house of one of the actors, and was later finished by Castellano in 1990 in the United States.

Ophelia, a young nun recently arriving in the town of San Ramon, is forced to perform an exorcism on a pregnant woman in danger of dying. Just when she thinks her possession has ended, she discovers that the evil presence hasn't disappeared yet. The director of the award-winning Here Comes the Devil and Late Phases adds a new twist to possession movies in one of this year's Latin American horror surprises.

When an infamous "cursed" Egyptian sarcophagus falls into the hands of unscrupulous huckster Everett Randolph, he becomes obsessed with resurrecting the mummified princess held within it.
