Thanks for the memories!

hyped garbage

good back-story, and good acting

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

I'm from Argentina and I'm interested in development of Horror movies in my country, so I was excited about this film. Now I've seen it, my disappointment is total.The acting is disastrous. Bogliano seems to be so inept directing actors that he even achieved to make Marina Glezer (a talented actress) perform poorly. In addition, one of the old villains (the one with gray bear) apparently dubbed his own voice in post-production but making a voice totally unnatural, affected and contradictory with his character's personality.The Script is pure excrement (I'm not exaggerating). The main idea of the movie (Women kidnapped with nitroglycerine over their body, in order to escape without provoking an explosion can undress, cut their hair, change position, bend, stay on foot, and even crawl upstairs, but can not walk) is totally illogical. The guy's decision to enter the house and then his persistence on staying there, instead of calling the police, are both absurd. From then on, everything that follows (literally everything) is garbage (I won't give examples because them would be sp0ilers). As an Awful-Script Bonus, there is a zombie-style ludicrous plot element, and a pathetic attempt of transmitting a message about the dark years of last Argentine Dictatorship.The construction of characters' personality and personal conflicts is extremely poor and childish and the dialogs are surprisingly unnatural and stupid (but not even funny).The visual aspect (frame, shots, FX, photography) is terrible. A funny detail about this is that the untalented model Camila Velasco was hired for this movie because of her sexy body (huge natural boobs, lovely lolita-like skin) but the low quality of the photography ruined her short moment of partial nudity. The sound is also poor, and the music choices are ridiculous.It is important to clarify this is not a low-budget movie. 2.2 Million ARS is a reasonable amount of money for filming with Argentine costs a teen Horror movie with four main actors and basically just one location. Actually, what is sadly scarce here is talent and passion.

Román (Facundo Espinosa) and his friend Ali (Marina Glezer) seek out his girlfriend Jackie (Camila Velasco) in a dangerous zone in a suburb in Buenos Aires. Ali shows an old house and tells that Jackie had met a blonde guy that she found in Internet, and now she had been invited to have dinner with him. Román waits in the car while Ali enters the house.When Román suspects that something is wrong, he breaks in the house and finds two old men torturing a young woman in a room in the basement and Ali tied with nitroglycerin in her front head. Román neutralizes the nitro and releases his friend. Then he decides to seek out Jackie in the place while Ali tries to leave the house and call the police."Sudor Frío" is an Argentinean horror movie with a stupid and lame story and annoying music score. The imbecile decision of the lead characters staying in the creepy house instead of calling the police is absolutely unreasonable. The actress Marina Glezer is born in Brazil, but her parents left my country in the 70's to escape from the military dictatorship. My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "Calafrios" ("Shivers")

First of all... the reviews here are all fake obviously. This movie sure looks nice and features some nice effects and slow motion sequences but thats it. I guess there was no script, they just went for it.They had a creepy house and 2 basic ideas: " Hey, lets make the evil guys seniors with crutches" and "Nitroglyzerine is totally explosive and awesome, lets use that!" Thats it, there is no storyline. The movie starts with a guy and girl in a car, setting up some random story about a girlfriend captured through a guy from an internet chat and off it goes. They go into a creepy house, girl gets captured by evil seniors who lure in dumb internet-teenagers, guy is off to rescue her and his girlfriend.The dialog is painfully dumb, luckily there is not too much of it although the movie consist of 90% nothing or nearly nothing happening in slow motion. Obviously the movie is heavily influenced by modern horror clichés and goes for some torture-cellar style way. But except for one ludicrous scene there is no real gore here, so its not the selling aspect. This is not a horror movie, its a comedy and I am sure of that because of these scenes: - Guy watches torture through a one-way window with a talk-back feature and gets freaked out when a senior listens back in to him so he has to be veeery quiet in one of the first ridiculous endless slow motion pseudo-suspense scenes of the movie. Its a senior by the way and those are known for their bat-sense listening powers as well as their calm hands (comes in handy later!).Guy sneaks into torture chamber and hides behind senior with crutches torturing his friend with boring questions. Obviously the senior is extremely dangerous because he has nitroglycerin and crutches... so the suspense is unbearable not just when he hides behind the senior but also when he has to remove a bottle of nitroglycerin from his girlfriend in slow motion.Guy finds his real girlfriend covered in nitroglycerin. Obviously she can't move and has to undress her drenched clothes very careful in slow motion with plenty of close ups and her friend watching with sweat dripping from his head.Senior with crutches chases them (in slow motion), girlfriend crawls faster and you wonder why she undressed in slow motion and doesn't explode now.If you think its laughable enough to have a crutched senior handling nitroglycerin and scaring everybody ... he also has a syringe with acid and he sprays it in slow motion. I have never been more terrified of a bad guy ever! - The guy who in many scenes has to handle nitroglycerin extremely cautious and slooooowly kills one bad guy by throwing a bottle of nitroglycerin at him... he THROWS nitroglycerin to make someone else explode... IN SLOW MOTION!!! There are scenes in here that are so ridiculous its hard to find words for it. I won't go into the pseudo-stories about some zombie slaves in the cellar or something about a secret service organization stealing dynamite crates or the random math questions they ask their victims. It makes no sense at all, nothing adds up. Those fragments are dropped in without any connection or sense and the movie ends as randomly and sudden as it began.Its a shame they wasted the good slow motion cinematography and effects on this joke. If its a comedy I'd give it 4 points but as its obviously a horror movie 1 point is the sure way to go because the script, acting, dialog and music heavily counterbalance the good cinematography. There are many insanely idiotic horror movies out there like "Train", "Uninvited"... but in many decades of horror-stupidity "Sudor Frio" sure takes the cake.

This was my favorite film during Morbido Film Fest. I've never been familiar with the director of Sudor Frio, but after this movie I've been looking everywhere for his other movies. This film has a Tony Scott taste but mixed with Edgar Wright. Just pure style. An awesome style. The movie starts with a couple of old dudes torturing a young hot girl. Then the movie develops in a story of a girl and a guy having to enter inside of the house of this two sickos. I won't spoil anything so don't worry. I'm here just to tell you, this is the most entertaining Argentinian Film ever. Argentina has their masterpieces like ¨El secreto de sus ojos¨and now it has a new masterpiece called Sudor Frio. Mark my words people, this movie is going big and blowing up everything on it's way. WATCH IT!
