Comments:
“What the Waters Left Behind: The Scars is an atmospheric sequel to the first part and does a lot of things even better than it. What the series always scores is its unique storyline, against which all the backwood slashers with their you-can-see-the-woods-for-the-trees backdrops just draw the short straw. Overall, Onetti alone does a solid job. Geek Germany
“The actors and actresses are also very correct and can convince in their roles. There’s also a little more emphasis placed on character development than in Part 1. The editing is fast and the whole movie is very entertaining and entertaining. The many torture and gore scenes are at least partially creative. Ittenbach Fans

Production:
Filming began in September 2021 in Epecuén, Argentina.
Background:
Epecuén was one of the most important tourist villages in Argentina. Thousands of people agreed, attracted by the healing properties of its thermal waters.
On November 10, 1985, a huge volume of water broke the protective dike and the village was submerged under ten meters of salt water. Epecuen has disappeared. Thirty years later, the waters receded and the ruins of Epecuén emerged, exposing a bleak, deserted landscape. The locals never came back…
