In 1990, six friends celebrate their graduation. The party comes to a shocking conclusion when one of them, Angel, falls to her death. Ten years later, two of the people who attended the party show up dead in Miguel's morgue, where he works as a medical examiner. Convinced that Angel has come back for vengeance, he alerts Carolina. Through flashbacks, the film reveals that Miguel had a relationship with Angel, who was bullied and unaccepted by her peers. Miguel and Carolina try to survive the masked killer, and Carolina works to uncover what really happened the day that Angel died.

Release
Ángel Negro premiered on October 31, 2000, and it entered wide release in Chile on November 1, 2000.[1] Troma Entertainment released it on DVD in the United States on October 25, 2003.[5]
