LATIN HORROR founder-in-chief, Edwin Pagán, conducts an exclusive interview
with emerging horror phenom 
Felipe Vargas about the making of his supernatural horror film ROSARIO (2025), as well as little known trivia about the production.

Felipe Vargas demonstrates a culturally-grounded finesse in his current eerie and atmospheric supernatural horror film in his feature film debut. Latin American directors continue to bring the “spine-tingling the creeps” to the genre, and Vargas is now on that short list.  RASORIO features a small but stellar cast that include Emeraude Toubia, David Dastmalchian, Paul Ben-Victor, José Zúñiga, Diana Lein, and Emilia Faucher. The film’s visuals and sets/landscapes are stunning, immersive and seamless, facilitated by cinematographer Carmen Cabana and Carlos Osorio, respectively.

ROSARIO hits theaters May 2, 2025. Go out and watch this one!
