Forget The Shape of Water. This is the real sex-with-sea-monsters movie. Except that La Región Salvaje (The Untamed) is creepy and troubling and also actually quite sexy. I am not sure I love the filmmaking here—it's a little flat sometimes—but this movie had lots of surprises in store for me. And I loved that. Also, this movie goes there. It waits until act three to really let us see what we've been imagining, but once we're in act three, The Untamed lets loose. Simone Bucio, the main actress in The Untamed, it should be noted, is excellent.
