Christian Zyp interviews Mike Mendez (director/producer)about the horror anthology SATANIC HISPANICS. It will screen at the Calgary Underground Film Festival Saturday April 22 @ 9:45 pm and Thursday April 27 @ 4 pm at the Globe Cinema. Mike Mendez will also be in attendance for the screening for a Q&A.

SATANIC HISPANICS is an anthology of 5 short films from some of the leading Latin filmmakers in the horror genre (Mike Mendez, Demian Rugna, Eduardo Sanchez, Gigi Saul Guerrero & Alejandro Brugues). The film spotlights Hispanic talent both in front and behind the camera. The film starts when police raid a house in El Paso. They find it full of dead Latinos, and only one survivor. He’s known as The Traveler, and when they take him to the station for questioning, he tells them those lands are full of magic and talks about the horrors he’s encountered in his long time on this earth, about portals to other worlds, mythical creatures, demons and the undead.
