In Face of the Devil, seven friends go on a remote jungle vacation where they are terrorized by a primeval spirit, but as they struggle to survive they come to realize that they brought the demon with them and evil lies within.
Face of the Devil, or La Cara Del Diablo if you want to use its original name, has taught me to add ‘remote jungle hotels run by a single creepy old man’ to my list of places where not to go on holiday. I’ve put it beneath ‘abandoned asylums’ and above ‘orphanages’ just so I don’t forget.

Mexican beauty queen, Maria Susana Flores Gamez, 20, was killed in a shootout between an alleged drug trafficking gang and Mexican military patrolmen.
According to a report by the AP, Gamez was traveling with the drug gang when the gun battle took place.
"She was with the gang of criminals, but we cannot say whether she participated in the shootout," says state prosecutor Marco Antonio Higuera. "That's what we're going to have to investigate."
An assault rifle was found nearby Gamez' body.

A non-fiction book related to the same theme was published in 2009 called "Miss Narco." The author, Javier Valdez, says Gamez' tragic end is "a recurrent story."
