About Mi adorado Monster (2021): The Wild Truth Behind Spain's Most Cursed Horror Film

Step into the chaotic world of Mi adorado Monster (2021), a wild documentary-comedy that dives deep into the absurd and obsessive universe of Spanish cult cinema.

Director Víctor Matellano turns the camera on himself and his own decade-spanning quest to bring a nightmarish horror film to life—a project so cursed it feels like it's haunted by its own failure. Blending sharp humor with behind-the-scenes chaos, the film follows Matellano's battles with creative frustration, financial woes, and a creeping sense of dread that something—or someone—is always watching.
