I had a huge expectations on this Movie, but already after 30 minutes I figured out what was going on the km 31. Watched it to end and I said to myself "never trust the Trailers." lol

So I watch this on the same day as They. The first scene is incredibly familiar and illustrates exactly what is wrong with horror today. The films were made a few years apart, in completely different countries and I'm not accusing of plagiarism as the scene wasn't that original t... read more

A mexican attempt at milking the cow of the Ringu/Ju On horror vein with very poor results. The story feels just way too familiar for anyone who has seen at least one or two of those type of flicks. Forgettable and generic, mexican horror films of the 60's had way more visual cre... read more

Another Crying Woman legend (la Llorona) film from Mexico. The far-fetchedness of all that went on at Km 31 didn't bother me but the ending seemed more like quitting than ending. I deduct a point for that and give one back for Iliana Fox's engaging performance. Keep an eye on her.

Not expecting that much of a good thing, and yet It was something bigger and better all the way. I truly recomend that you go over to the nice theater and SEE IT..

Supernatural thriller elements finally combine with an old Mexican folk legend. Full Review
So what bit of this stylishly made, relentlessly silly horror film is "based on real events", exactly? Full Review
It's all too familiar for its own good, and isn't helped by the screenplay's meandering subplots about the twin sisters' past and their loves in the present. Full Review
This stunningly derivative Latin ghost chiller might have had audiences Jackson Pollocking their underwear 10 years ago. Now (unless you've spent the past decade down a well), only the sheer poverty o... Full Review
Solid performances and a well-manifested sense of the supernatural makes KM 31 a journey worth taking. Full Review
A standard shudder picture, with an impressive, chilling apparition. Full Review
Mexico's first ghost story in decades is slick and well-crafted, but fails to distinguish itself or find its way to a satisfying ending. Full Review
