Beneath Us

Lynn "Goddess" Collins is the main reason for watching!

This movie focuses on the serious social and political problems arising from illegal immigration in the USA. There is no escaping this analysis. From there, each draws their conclusions according to their point of view. I believe it will affect even mood when giving a rate. White conservative Americans will love the way Latinos are treated, Latinos and liberal whites will revolt, and so on. Everyone knows that the problem exists and, despite the exaggeration, the movie portrays, in an alternative way, the reality.

Sadly , some americans would love to enslave illegal immigrants, especially latina, since most Americans don't wann do the work that Latinos accept to do cheaply out of necessity. The immigration problem will continue to grow no solution.

As for the movie, the production is poor, the interpretations almost amateur. But that is what matters least, because the matter is real and very serious.

The ending is redemptive for Latinos and should bother conservative whites.

This films takes a real life scenario, undocumented immigrants working for below minimum wage to scrape a living, and turns it into a disturbed thriller. I won't go into details about the content, but I will say that the female lead is a total nut job! The scary thing about this film is the fact that it could happen, maybe even has to some degree. Reason for the 5 stars? Slow start, lack of depth in the "immigrant" characters and a poor finale. The film deserved more... a good story, but needed more.

You know, they could have just made a movie about two psychos who hire day laborers and taunt/torture/kill them. It could've been entertaining. Instead, the director/producer/whatvever decided to add this ridiculous notion that somehow all white folks are scared, bigoted racists who hate illegals. It seeps through in everything, e.g. the way the third guy is killed and the laughably stupid talk show at the end where some white guy asks "well what's wrong with slavery?"

Thumbs down for another stupid SJW piece of garbage from the hypocrites in Hollywood.

I wouldn't describe this movie as a horror film though, it's a well directed thriller with interesting choice of music and some scenes turned out to be really mesmerizing as well as spooky. Sure it's political but it's done in a good way, the actors play their role pretty well and the story is intriguing, not boring even for a second. The storyline evolves in a quite realistic way, you don't notice at fist glance that the characters are being trapped in this house. Oh and of course I have to say that it's worth watching for the two main actors who are quite handsome (Alejandro and Memo).
