This Week On Being Latino: Latinos In Horror Films

Being Latino, the largest Latino community on Facebook, is a communication platform designed to educate and connect all peoples across the global Latino spectrum. They also have a fascinating online magazine. Every week, we’ll be featuring a story we feel you should read.

It’s a well-known fact that Latinos love going to the movies. In fact, we’re 80% more likely to go see a movie during it’s opening weekend than any other ethnic group. As a result, Hollywood studios are throwing fistfuls of dollars at agencies trying to reach us. But how about giving us a little love on the big screen? Yeah, not so much. For this week’s required reading from our friends over at Being Latino, we have a very interesting and thoughtful article from Daniel Cubas about a new cinematic stereotype: the Latino in horror films.
