Danilo Parra’s latest documentary will be streaming soon…

Documentary+ will launch the Chilean-American filmmaker’s Mala Onda, one of the service’s original feature docs.

Mala Onda, which launches on October 27, investigates the mystery surrounding sudden animal deaths in Puerto Rico.

From 1975 to the present, the stories of animals bled dry through small circular incisions captivated Puerto Rican towns and gave rise to rumors of vampires, aliens, and chupacabras.

Through interviews with farmers, mediums, scientists, historians, and local witnesses, Mala Onda explores our collective obsession with the unexplained, while also showcasing the diversity of culture and thought in the affected Puerto Rican towns.

Directed by Parra, it is produced by Michael Biggam and executive produced by Matthew Clyde and XTR’s Bryn Mooser, Kathryn Everett, Abazar Khayami and Justin Lacob.

Parra previously co-created and directed Vice’s Hamilton’s Pharmacopeia.
