This smart and sassy micro-budget horror breakout from Paraguayan writer-director Hugo Cardozo was a massive box office hit in Paraguay, beating out both IT CHAPTER TWO and ANNABELLE COMES HOME to become the highest-grossing horror film of 2019. En route to his first shift as a security guard at the local hospital, Diego is involved in a hit-and-run, fleeing the scene for fear of being late to his new job. When Diego arrives at the hospital, the daytime security officer shows him the ropes before ending his shift, giving him a tour of the building that ends at the hospital morgue, where a newly-delivered corpse lies —one that Diego's fellow guard says was killed in a car accident that very evening. Left alone for the night, Diego gets to work, trying to dismiss the thought that this corpse could be the pedestrian he left for dead. But as he walks the empty hallways, strange noises begin to unsettle Diego, and as the night progresses, he is increasingly tormented by his guilt...or something far more sinister. With an English-language remake already in works from screenwriter Eric Heisserer (ARRIVAL, BIRD BOX), MORGUE is a must-see for horror fans everywhere. DIR/SCR/PROD Hugo Cardozo. Paraguay, 2019, color, 81 min. In Spanish and Guarani with English subtitles. NOT RATED
