We Are What We Are (Spanish: Somos lo que hay) is a 2010 Mexican horror film directed by Jorge Michel Grau.

A stand-alone sequel to Cronos (1993), the film is about a family who, after the death of the father, try to continue on with a disturbing, ritualistic tradition.

[2] The film stars Paulina Gaitán and Daniel Giménez Cacho, the latter of whom reprises his role from Cronos.

When the boys arrive at home, their sister Sabina enters in a state of shock and announces that their father has died.

In a morgue, Tito the coroner and the director of the funeral home bring in Octavio and Owen, two police detectives.

Julián and Patricia take the prostitute back to the corner where the boys picked her up and dump her in front of the other street workers.

Alfredo's prey escapes while Patricia beats the older man over the head with a shovel and the family later kills him.

Detective Owen discovers Sabina and Patricia preparing their meal in a ritualistic fashion, but the women kill him.

[5] Daniel Giménez Cacho reprised his role as Tito the Coroner, a character from the horror film Cronos from 1993, directed by Guillermo del Toro.

Young stated that "another limiting factor is the difficulty of identifying with any of the characters, who are played expressively but still remain abstract and alien, distant from the viewer.

The site's critics consensus reads, "We Are What We Are is elevated horror that combines family drama and social politics, with plenty of gore on top.
