El cebo [Blu-ray]

Ladislao Vajda had obtained notable international successes with three films starring the boy Pablito Calvo (Marcelino bread and wine, My uncle Jacinto and An angel passed through Brooklyn), when he received the proposal to direct another film with children, but with a much less friendly theme. . Based on a plot by Friedrich Dürrenmatt that he would later turn into the novel The Promise, Vajda directed a modern story in which the big bad wolf/ogre attacks and kills the little blonde riding hoods who dare to follow him into the forest. With clear influences from The Night of the Hunter and M, the Vampire of Düsseldorf, Vajda demonstrated that terror is not an emotion exclusive to sordid and dark settings, as indicated by the German title: It Happened in the Light of Day.
