If you loved El río de la ira, try Medianoche en el Switchgrass
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Randall Emmett, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Action / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to El río de la ira, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Medianoche en el Switchgrass is
Abandoned highway rest stop, summer heat warping the asphalt, a single sneaker melting near the curb. Two agents follow trucker receipts and motel ledgers, bodies surfacing in ditches just beyond state lines. Feels like a 1970s police bulletin crossed with a grindhouse postcard—lean, grim, and pulse-quickening.
