On the anniversary of their grandmother's death, four cousins, as close as brothers, reconnect on a road trip to the Texas Rio Grande Valley to pay respects to the woman who helped raise them. Hidden beneath their friendship, the truth of their childhood surfaces to reveal a darkness in the family that won't stop until the cousin's lives are changed forever. Blending comedy, Mexican folklore and terror, Blood Cousins puts a new spin on revenge films and defines the word,'retribution'.

Excellent but underrated film
Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
The initial offering by the Comemdia A Go-Go comedy troupe is an entertaining experience. The chemistry between the four protagonists is a good mixture of energetic and sincere. Larry Garza and Jess Castro in particular seem to be having a blast with their characters. The story is nice change from the zombie apocalypse theme that seems to infect so many of the films in this category. There just aren't enough movies with witchcraft and revenge at their roots these days. There are some very funny parts along with all too familiar family drama to even the story out. The flaws that I noticed seemed to be technical issues. Most notably the dialog doesn't always seem to match up with actors' mouths. Otherwise a good movie all around.
From the beginning you can tell this road trip won't end well. THis motley crew of family take a road trip and experience some bizarre events. You can feel the humor from the very beginning with the characters of Stevie Ray Von & Eric, four cousins in all. Clever choice of names. IF the Tio's were Tio Clap and Tio Ton we would have 2 great guitarists in the movie. I thoroughly enjoyed the film and it had twists similar to the Texas Chain Saw Massacre sans Leatherface. I would encourage anyone who has a good sense of humor, is not offended by some sexual language and enjoys South Texas to go to this movie. I look forward to the DVD so I can share it more of my friends and family that might not be able to see a screening. I give this movie two thumbs up and 4 jalapeños! Puro San Antonio!
