In this episode, Jeff, Chad, and Bill welcome guest-host Scott Wells to review the 1989 “avant-garde surrealistic psychological horror film” from director Alejandro Jodorowsky. While the film is in English, Santa Sangre is a Mexican and Italian co-production that features a truly bizarre tale that has to be seen to be believed. The less said here, the better – it’s so much better to join the Grue-Crew to revisit this unpredictable, gorgeous, must-see mind-bender.
At the time of this writing, Santa Sangre is available to stream from Shudder, AMC+, Screambox, Kanopy, and Tubi, and is available on physical media from Severin in three releases: Blu-ray (2011), 2-Disc Special Edition Blu-ray (2021), and a 4K Ultra HD 4-Disc Limited Edition Collector’s Set (2021). Both 2021 releases are made from a 4K scan of the original negative supervised by the director.
Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film, chosen by Crystal, will be The Boogey Man (1980), directed by Ulli Lommel and featuring the formidable John Carradine … and a mirror? This should be a fun one!
Please let them know how they’re doing! They want to hear from you – the coolest, grooviest fans – so leave them a message or comment on the Gruesome Magazine Youtube channel, on the Gruesome Magazine website, or email the Decades of Horror 1980s podcast hosts at [email protected].

Esta historia me parece preciosa:
“¡Cuánto quise a mi desaparecido hijo Teo! Quizás presintiendo su temprana muerte hice todo lo que pude para darle una infancia feliz. Al cumplir 7 años, me pidió ir solo conmigo a un restaurante chino. Así lo hicimos. Leyendo el menú se le hizo la boca agua al ver el nombre de doce sopas. Todas le parecían deliciosas y se angustió no sabiendo cuál elegir. Me pidió que yo decidiera. Me di cuenta de que, eligiera la que eligiera, él quedaría frustrado. Recordé un chiste:
Una familia toma asiento en el restaurante para cenar. Llega la camarera, anota lo que desean los adultos y luego le pregunta al niño: “¿Qué vas a tomar?”. El muchachito mira con timidez a sus padres y dice: “Una hamburguesa”. Antes de que la camarera tenga tiempo de escribirlo, interviene la madre: “¡Nada de hamburguesas! ¡Tráigale un filete con puré de patata y zanahorias!”. La camarera parece no oírla. “¿Cómo quieres la hamburguesa: con ketchup o con mostaza?”, pregunta al niño. “Con ketchup.” “Te la traigo en un minuto”, dice la camarera yéndose hacia la cocina. Cuando ésta desparece, hay un instante de silencio producido por el asombro. Al fin el niño mira a todos los presentes y exclama: “¿Qué os parece? ¡La camarera piensa que soy real!”.
Este chiste me dio la solución del koan: tenía que satisfacer los deseos de mi hijo, no los míos. Llamé al camarero y le pedí que sirviera al mismo tiempo las doce sopas. Al ver la mesa llena de esos exóticos tazones plenos de líquidos deliciosos, Teo cayó en éxtasis. Tomó unas pocas cucharadas de cada uno. Fue feliz.”

- Señor Alejandro Jodorowsky:
El domingo falleció mi hijo de 20 años y me siento enojado con la vida y quisiera que usted o alguna persona de las que lo sigue me pudiera decir algo no se lo que sea para tratar de entender porque o para que pasan estas cosas y no me quiero hacer la victima pero pues para tener ganas de vivir!!!"
- Querido Jorge Patron:
Cuando murió, de una overdose, a los 24 años, mi hijo Teo, sufrí y me desesperé tanto que fui a México a pedirle consuelo a mi Maestro Zen Ejo Takata. Cuando ,llorando, le conté mi desgracia, él me repondió una sola palabra: "Duele".
Comprendí entonces que yo no debía luchar contra el dolor,sino aceptarlo. La muerte no tiene explicación racional. Sucede, nos quita al ser amado, nos destroza el ego, nos vacía el mundo. Viene entonces el lento trabajo de reconstrucción. Poco a poco nos vamos reintegrando, profundamente cambiados. Nos embarga una compasión infinita, surgimos de nuestra isla individual y comenzamos a darnos cuenta de la existencia de los otros.
Al cabo de 10 años de intensos sufrimientos, luchando para rehacerme, comprendí que la terrible muerte de Teo era uno de los acontecimientos más útiles de mi vida: renací como un verdadero ser humano, repartiendo la inmensidad de mi amor por él, no solo entre todos los seres humanos, sino también entre todo los seres vivientes.
DUELE. TODO ES PARA BIEN.
