Oh, the Places We'll Go: Mexican Movies

On today’s episode of Talking Movies with My Mom, we travel to Mexico for this season’s installment of our "Oh, the Places We’ll Go" series. Our first stop is "Y tu mama tambien," where we lay bare the idea that sex-fueled teenage road trip movies can be surprisingly poignant, winning the "prize" can come with unforeseen consequences, and an end-credit song can add an unexpected exclamation point to a movie’s themes. Next up, we cross the border into B-Horror with "Santo vs. the Vampire Women." We honor its star, luchador El Santo, for his enduring legacy as a pop culture icon and folk hero, grapple with the concept of werewolf vampires, and pin down Santo’s playbook for how to kill the undead with crosses, sunlight, and a blast of pyrotechnics.For additional information, resources, and a transcript of the episode, visit https://www.podcastics.com/podcast/talking-movies-with-my-mom/ You can also follow us on Instagram @talkingmovieswithmymom.
