Teresa makes 17-year-old Ester dress in boy clothing, fashion that even the local patrons comment on. In a similar vein as Hulu’s mini-series The Act, the dynamic of the mother-daughter role is bizarre, unsettling and rarely portrayed in feature films. Mendes (Ester) co-stars with Adriana Barraza (Teresa), in a chilling role as her homicidal mother with a mission. It’s a psychological drama rather than thriller, as their life on the Texas-Mexico border becomes inundated with strange visitors: some seemingly innocent families looking for food and shelter, some violent young men with guns readily at aim. But with a horrific act in a not-so-horror film is the jarring, unique tone Seligman and her co-writer Thomas Bond seems to be going for. Within a few minutes, the unconscious coyote is wrapped up and sinking to the bottom of Coyote Lake.

In another incident on Saturday, a woman identified only as Allison said she had to go to hospital for rabies shots after being bitten multiple times by an animal while on a picnic with a friend. "It was not defending itself, it was attacking, and that's what's very scary."Īfter about half a minute, Broach said he got rid of the coyote by using pepper spray, but told WFMY it tried to attack him one more time before finally leaving the area.
