EL DRAGÓN DE KOMODO

About This Movie

El Dragón de Komodo is a fascinating piece of drama that dives deep into the shadows of childhood innocence confronted by grotesque horrors. The narrative follows a boy who unearths his sister’s remains in an unsettling setting—an old lady’s garden, where she lives in eerie seclusion with her cat and another boy with Down’s syndrome. The atmosphere is thick and disturbing; the old woman’s methods of nurturing her garden are chillingly inventive, using the fluids of children to feed her plants. The practical effects, while not always polished, give a raw authenticity to the film’s unsettling themes. The pacing can be deliberately slow, almost lulling you into a sense of dread. It’s a stark exploration of loss and the macabre, a haunting watch that lingers long after the credits roll.
