Huesera: The Bone Woman is Michelle Garza Cervera’s debut thriller film about a particularly horrific pregnancy.
Since Huesera: The Bone Woman has only been in theatres in the United States for a short while, the best places to stream the film currently include streaming and rental services like Vudu, iTunes, and Shudder.
What is Huesera: The Bone Woman about?
Few films manage to combine pregnancy body horror and haunted house horror in quite the same spine-chilling way that Huesera: The Bone Woman does.
While Huesera: The Bone Woman does play on some familiar tropes that films like Rosemary’s Baby, Hereditary, and The Babadook introduced years ago, Michelle Garza Cervera, who is the writer and producer of the film, offsets these predictable tropes with totally unexpected outcomes.
This makes the story of first-time mother, Valeria’s difficult and haunting journey before, during, and after a childbirth, which was so traumatic that the ancient Mexican sorcerers did not even know what to do, all the more chilling.
Where to watch Huesera: The Bone Woman
Body horror films often struggle to find mainstream success. When a horror film is directed by a foreign female director making her debut in the genre and onto the big screen, it can be even more difficult for the film to achieve widespread success.
Fortunately, Huesera: The Bone Woman has exceeded expectations after its initial debut at the Tribeca Festival in New York on 9 June 2022, where the movie was simply titled “Huesera”.
Huesera: The Bone Woman was finally greenlit for its own theatrical release in North America after it was able to achieve critical acclaim and fame in the international market.
The film was then released by XYZ Films in theatres all throughout North America on 10 February 2023.
Since Huesera: The Bone Woman has only been available in theatres in the United States for under a week, it may be difficult to find a place to watch the film if you cannot or do not want to go to your local movie theatre.
