At the opening, it's easy to see that this story has legs. They take us (and Doctor Valdez)through the Lacandan jungle in Chiapas, Mexico. We are looking for an ancient Aztec relic and find the tomb which houses Tezcatlapulca after a wild ride through the jungle.
Six months later, Doctor Valdez has arranged a meeting with a group of businessmen who came begrudgingly to the university. The doctor had enticed the group with the prospect of them making tons of money with the knowledge the universities research will provide them. The mention of riches was a strong motivating factor for this group of greedy scofflaws. But Doctor Valdez has a hidden agenda. She has intimate knowledge of the nefarious activities of each member of this select group.
The story is moved along nicely by the score including some foreboding metal music on the good doctor's radio. Without revealing any spoilers, let's just suggest the viewer remember this is a short revenge film. Even on its last legs the film provides surprise and shock. One should also be prepared to enjoy lots of good music and a good dose of humour.
