September Picks: The Movies and TV You Can't Miss15 of 25
"Los Espookys" | Season 2 Premieres on HBO Max on Friday, Sept. 16
Plot: Season 2 of this bilingual comedy series follows gore enthusiast Renaldo and his friends who are haunted by ghosts — some real, some internal, and some existential — as they struggle to stage more horror-themed encounters for their clients.
Our Take: After 3 years of pandemic-related delays, this cult series that features comedian Julio Torres and was championed by Fred Armisen returns to TV. Initially, it seems the Scooby gang might be contending with their own issues, but a central matter — a ghost who is haunting Renaldo (Bernardo Velasco) — will bring the crew together. Watch out for appearances from Roma star Yalitza Aparicio and Isabella Rossellini playing herself. — Arno
