Although I did enjoy the film for escapist entertainment you are right. This film is riddled in clichés. The one that had me rolling my eyes the most was the cartel dude was performing Aztec-esque human sacrifices, which he specifically implies gave him the devils protection while David, the Spanish mestizo, was the devoted, yet (ruthless) catholic who could do no wrong. Both were scumbags. David allowed Creeper to do just as horrible things just like the Aztec worshipping Indian cartel dude. There was obviously an agenda in this film like beating the audience on the head with the good Spaniard bad Indian trope. Given the guy who made this film and End of Watch, some themes are very similar.
