“The crisis of 1968 was not a structural crisis that
would place at risk the very survival of the nation; it
was above all, a political, moral, and psychological
crisis, a crisis of values and principles, which shook up
the triumphant echoes of the governing elite;
it was a bloody announcement that times had
changed, without changing the means to confront
them.”
(Héctor Aguilar Camín and Lorenzo Meyer)
Tlatelolco Square massacre in Mexico City
October 2, 1968

“The Mexican tradition for [horror] films is very
simplistic and very conformist, in my opinion, despite
their surface delirium. I don’t really like them very
much.... I think my films much more belong in the
surrealist tradition than in the Mexican one.”
Juan López Moctezuma, 1977

“The film isn't exactly anti-clerical: while Dr. Oszek berates
Father Lázaro and the nuns for torturing Justine to death, it later
turns out their diagnosis of demonic possession was
(apparently) correct. Furthermore, Sister Angélica is a positive
figure throughout the film, and the other church members are
depicted as somewhat overzealous, but not evil.”
