The first Mexican horror film, this movie is all about the legend of "The Crying Woman." There's been a film made about this story every few years and few of them are good. This one at least has some interesting atmosphere and is historically important.
Maria is a woman who has two children and is quite poor, but finds a wealthy man to marry. However, he cares more about the kids than her, so in a jealous rage she drowns them both and kills herself. Now, she's trapped between life and death, unable to ever stop crying. She can never move to the next plane of existence until she finds her sons.
The film also relates other tales of women who took the lives of their children, all reduced to being crying women as well. Obviously, this movie is very influenced by Universal's horror movies, yet it isn't the same level of quality. That said, it's still worth a view.
