Prédio Vazio

Really appreciate its unpolished approach to splatter/sadistic horror. It's basically a mom -- Nomacce as always the most elegantly sinister presence in brazilian cinema -- grieving the loss of her daughter and feeding hungry ghosts with the dead bodies of visitors at the hotel she manages and these miserable souls inhabit. Plot feels a bit bumpy, but who cares about that when there's an abundancy of old-school practical and makeup effects and spooky, putrid stuff popping up. Fav scene: Nomacce teaching a teen how to use peripheral vision so she can see spirits.
