Tuno negro (Spanish: Dark tuno) is a 2001 Spanish slasher film directed by Pedro L. Barbero and Vicente J. Martín about a serial killer who, dressed with a tuno cape and a mask, kills bad university students.
Plot
A serial killer infiltrates in the tuna of the University of Salamanca and uses the confusion of the night parties to kill lousy students whom he deems unworthy of receiving a university education. Two cops are tasked with discovering the real identity of the killer.
Critical reception
Critical reviews of the movie were quite bad. Agusto M. Torres wrote in El País that there are "irregularities in the development of history" and that "the villain is the most difficult to figure out and lacks any kind of reason, moral or psychological, to be a serial murderer" but he also indicates that it has an "effective and fine humor".[1]Carlos Aguilar in his Guía del cine español describes the movie as "incoherent and forced" but better than other contemporary Spanish slasher films such as El arte de morir or School Killer.[2]
