The movie really just wants to entertain people.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Well I exaggerated a little. But to be honest, "Cañitas" is truly one of the worst Horror movies ever produced in México, and if I go further; in the history of Horror cinema.I'm a Horror enthusiastic and I can proudly say that I've watched most of Mexican Horror movies in order to generate a Horror-movie culture in my beautiful country, México.But "Cañitas" made fun of Horror fans with a lame plot, boring pace, horrible acting, laughable and mediocre f/x (a little effort wouldn't hurt), silly dialogs, and absolutely no sense of the word "fear" or even suspense.This is by far the worst Mexican production in cinema from the millennium. I'm not exaggerating. Please, avoid this movie and the novel! Everything's a hoax.

There are two kinds of opinions about Carlos Trejo's movie: he thinks it's the best movie in the world. The rest of Mexico believes it's not worth the time you spend watching it. In fact, it's not even a horror movie. It's a comedy. And it is also a bad comedy. It has bad acting, bad special effects (in fact, it has special defects), bad photograph, bad sound, bad everything. It has lots of continuity errors: you can look through the window and it's illuminated in a frame, but in the next scene it's dark, and the only change has been that the camera switched actors. It has more holes in the plot than a fisher's net. I believe that the argument was produced by the proverbial typing monkeys, but instead of typing "Hamlet" at random they typed "Cañitas" on purpose. The only good thing about the movie it's the end: it means that you can go home if you are still awake.Considering that the so-called book of the same name is bad written, you can imagine why this movie is so bad. Don't watch this movie. It makes "Plan 9 from Outer Space" look good.

This film reminds me the Mexican cinema of the 80's, "el cine de piojito" or "louse cinema", as we mexicans used to call it, and I don't think that's a good thing.The chaotic camera movement wants to be similar to 24, the series, or some Dogma wannabe, but just doesn't feel right to this particular story about a possessed house in the vein of Amytiville but completely surrounded, at least emotionally, by the virus of "el ahí se va-region 4". And well, compared with the Kiefer Sutherland's show or any film by the pupils of Lars Von Trier, results bad executed.The acting is awful and the screenplay is full of black holes and absurdities (the deaf kid provokes laughs because he always seems to hear the voices of the rest of the actors).In the cinema that I attended, some people were shouting at the end: "Give us back our money!". And, in general, I've only heard bad comments of the film. Nonetheless, the film has had some good box office -at leas compared to recent Mexican releases like Jokel or Cuando las cosas suceden-, but for some extra-cinematographic reasons. I'll explain: a good friend of mine told me that he wanted to see the film because he had morbosity. And yes, that explains everything!: people go to see this film for pure morbosity, it's so bad and laughable and kitsch and mediocre, that people just can't avoid it.And that's a very frustrating and sad thing for Mexican cinema.

''Cañitas'', i have to said that i like get fear, i like a lot get fear, but i have to said that i hate the horror movies, cause like a cinema student i completely can said that the most part of this kind of movies were terrible, cause they were horrible make it, ''Cañitas'' it's another example of this, first i understand that it's a B movie, but it's disappointed that a B movie as be so bad like this, cause this kind of movies in general as better than the biggest commercial movies, the last year we have ''El Laberinto del Fauno'' that was a masterpiece of filming, and was a B movie, but this year we have ''Cañitas'' was a terrible movie, the screenplay was full of mistakes, a lot, until that mistakes isn't be so hard less and is not mistakes that get f*ck it the entire movie whit just be one, but are a lot of mistakes that leave the movie f*ck it, and easy: direction, performances, sound editing and music, were terrible!, apart you said that been a movie who really get fear but in one scene, i and my favorite blond, we get laugh, easy the movie were terrible and like Mexican i said been honest, we suck on the horror genre, plis we make wonderful movies like ''Y tu mama tambien'', ''Amores Perros'' and ''El Laberinto del Fauno'', we can whit just 2 things, good screenplays and good directors
