Queridos monstruos

An overview of the history of fantasy and horror cinema from the 1960s to the present day. Co-productions, the financing system, the Matesa case, the Miró Law, and the “back-to-back” system are some of the topics discussed firsthand by those involved.

Directed by Javier Prada, Kiko Prada, Queridos monstruos leans on a strong ensemble — Ángel Agudo, Carlos Aguilar, Javier Aguirre — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2014.
