Antonio Resines (CELL 211), Álex Angulo (DYING OF LAUGHTER), Ramón Barea (800 BULLETS) and Santiago Segura (THE LAST CIRCUS) co-star in this “worldwide cult classic” (Dread Central) co-produced by Agustín & Pedro Almodóvar and winner of three Goya Awards, now scanned in 4K from the original negative.
