Written by Jose Prendes from a story Prendes crafted with Cameron Larson and the director, The Legend of La Llorona has the following synopsis:

A malevolent spirit bent on vengeance, stalks a young family visiting Mexico. Andrew, Carly and their son Danny travel to an isolated hacienda in Mexico for a much needed vacation. As they enter the town, signs showing missing children set an ominous tone. The family learns of the legend of “La Llorona,” the evil spirit of a distraught mother who lurks near the water’s edge and strikes fear in the hearts of all who see her. La Llorona torments the family mercilessly, snatching Danny and trapping him in a netherworld between the living and the dead. Aided by the resourceful taxi driver Jorge the family races to save their only child, navigating the foreboding countryside held by menacing cartel thugs. Gaining strength and power and leaving a path of death and destruction in her wake, La Llorona is seemingly unstoppable. But a secret from Carly’s past may provide an opportunity to finally defeat the spirit.

The film stars Autumn Reeser, Antonio Cupo, and Zamia Fandiño, with Danny Trejo as the taxi driver Jorge.

The Legend of La Llorona has nothing to do with the “Conjuring Universe adjacent” movie The Curse of La Llorona or the La Llorona that was released through the Shudder streaming service last year, it just happens to be inspired by the same concept from Latin American folklore.
