Ok, listen up, this is for anyone who is looking for a creepy film to watch on Netflix. You can not go wrong with, ‘Don’t Listen’ (‘Voces’ in Spanish), a Spanish language horror film. I normally don’t do horror/scary flicks too often anymore but to keep my mind off of other things I decided to go for it and I was not disappointed. While there are some scares in this film seen before in other horror films, the twist and storyline make this one different so the scares work.
The story is about a married couple and their son who have recently moved into this new home, with the intentions of renovating it and selling it. The couple does this for a living but this home is older, larger and they know it's going to take more time and effort to get it ready for sale. The young son begins to hear noises, including on his walkie-talkie radios, and tells his mom and dad he doesn't like the house and wants to leave. Of course the parents attribute his behavior to being in a new place, no friends yet, etc. They eventually decide they need to hire a counselor to come to the house and work with him. All is well until one afternoon the counselor leaves and has a tragic ‘accident’ on her way home.
What the parents don’t realize is that the son is drawing pictures of events as they happen. Another horrible accident - or it appears to be - happens, causing the wife to leave the house. When the husband begins to hear things himself, he recruits a paranormal investigator and his daughter to come in and help him figure out what's in or was in the house.
From there the mystery picks up and there is a horrific twist later on that definitely is unexpected. This film is definitely one that will give you goose bumps!
