EP. 8 | Noirvember: But Make It Latin

EP. 10 | Ending the Season Hungry: On Macario and Eating The Whole Turkey.

Closing out the year — and our first season — with Macario (1960). A film about hunger, dignity, death, and what it costs to ask for one moment to yourself in a world that demands everything. Macario reminds us that life and death sit at the same table, that poverty is never a moral failure, and that even the smallest desire can feel radical when you’ve been taught to endure in silence. As the year ends, may we remember this lesson: don’t be ashamed to eat the whole turkey — but don’t forget to feed those around you, too. Gracias for traveling through Latin cinema with us this season. This is just the beginning. Nos vemos en el cine.' Produced & Edited by Angel I. Salinas.

EP. 9 | A Technicolor Navidad

In this holiday episode, El Cine Underground dives into Latin Christmas cinema through Mi Niño Tizoc (1972), Santa Claus vs. The Devil (1952), and The Shepherd’s Tale (1991). We explore Indigenous representation, the origins and symbolism of Posadas, Chicano religious imagery, and the contradictions at the heart of Catholic holiday storytelling. These films blend cultural critique, absurdity, and feel-good sentiment with a Mary Blair–esque sense of color, whimsy, and dreamlike holiday magic. Plus: details on our in-person screening at the Philosophical Research Society on October 19. Produced & Edited by Angel I. Salinas.

Ep . 6 | The Devil Wears a Top Hat: Coffin Joe’s Brazil

The Devil Wears a Top Hat: Coffin Joe’s Brazil This week, El Cine Underground descends into the world of Brazil’s most infamous horror icon — Zé do Caixão, known to the world as Coffin Joe. Created — and lived — by filmmaker José Mojica Marins, Coffin Joe is the undertaker who mocked God, tormented women, and became a national legend in the process. Watching these films wasn’t easy. They’re brutal, blasphemous, and often cruel — and as a woman, sitting through them felt like opening an old wound. But vulnerability is part of the work. As filmmaker Lourdes Portillo once said, “If you are going to document a culture, it is your responsibility to show the good and the bad.” Coffin Joe is both. He’s what happens when art, ego, and dictatorship collide — when horror becomes the only language left to tell the truth. Step inside the coffin. The Devil Wears a Top Hat: Coffin Joe’s Brazil — streaming now on El Cine Underground. Created by and hosted by Mariana Da Silva Produced and edited by Angel I.
