Film Discussion: Huesera: The Bone Woman

Horror in the Margins

We discuss Huesera: The Bone Woman directed by Michelle Garza Cervera. We talk about Mexican folklore, the horrors of domesticity and pregnancy, the concept of rewilding, and a whole lotta spiders, broken bones, and brujas.
Content warnings for discussions of pregnancy, postpartum depression, and some pretty gnarly body horror.
Huesera: The Bone Woman is available to view on Shudder and AMC+ and to rent on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Google Play, and Vudu.
