If you are looking for a GREAT version of the "La Llorona" myth look for the Mexican 2007 production of "KM 31" (or Kilometro 31). It is reminiscent of the J Horor movies. An excellent script, creepy as hell, and great efx! You will not be disappointed!!! Having said that...The Wailer movie was so bad that I cant even intelligently review it. The acting was horrible, the script was horrible, the production was well...you guessed it horrible!! The only positive thing I can say is that the image of La Llorona in the last 19 seconds of the movie was pretty scary looking. But not worth the $5 dollars. Trust me...look for KM 31 instead....you will thank me!!!

i was getting ready to watch some straight up horror. judging by the cover, you'd figure you'd be curled up on some couch getting creeped the hell out, but no, not at all. on the real, the only good thing, and scary thing was the wailer. that lady was mad crazy looking. i wish there could have been a lot more of her, and a lot less of those actors. almost threw up on some parts. see these are some of the things uncalled for in these horror flicks. what, now to get people scared you have to get people naked. so not my style. anyway. they blew it big time. the beginning was good, then it just went downhill from there. until i saw her, that was good makeup work. her wailing kind of gave you chills. i got to give her some kind of credit. man, there could have been so much done with this movie, and this character. the ending was okay. i didn't see it coming. pretty good, shows that not all folklore is fake. don't mess with what you don't know.

I was so excited to see this movie because I was aware of the legend of "La Llorona", and it was a big disappointment. The acting was horrible, the movie is low budget, and it seemed more like a soft porn movie than a horror story. Don't waste your money or time with this one. Hopefully someone else will come along and remake it. It could be a great movie about a legend that has endured for centuries. This is one of the worst movies I have ever watched.

this movie was amazing. who doesn't like to laugh at really bad acting? and trust me there was A LOT of it to choose from. but that's what made it so fantastic. my bf and i saw it a few years ago and we're still quoting parts from it.
"juan where my song at?"

Well written script, and has good makeup for the creature/ghost. The acting is so-so, but The Wailer is an ok horror movie.

A rarity in the film world, the original film is horrible, but the sequel is good. I watched both "The Wailer" and "The Wailer 2" and found the original to be absolutely horrendous! Terrible pacing, too much talking, and some cheesy effects (the blacked out windows were really bad). All and all, not a good film.

It's sequel, "The Wailer 2" is surprisingly better and you don't have to watch this mess to enjoy it. Skip "The Wailer" unless you want to kick yourself the next day.

this is one of the worst movies I have ever saw!! I dont recommend it to anyone!! the movie was low budget and the acting wasnt good at all!!! Dont waste your time with this movie!!
