"The Horror of Dolores Roach: A Killer Cannibal Series Continues with Season 2"

Justina Machado discusses her role as a murderous masseuse in Amazon Prime Video's "The Horror of Dolores Roach," a dark comedy series that explores themes of gentrification and post-incarceration. Machado, who previously starred in "One Day at a Time," reunites with creator Gloria Calderón Kellett for the show. She portrays Dolores Roach, a woman who opens a massage parlor in the basement of an empanada joint after being released from prison. Despite her violent actions, Roach remains a relatable character due to her struggles within an oppressive system. Machado expresses her joy in being part of a show where her Latinidad is not the central focus, and she reflects on her career as a Latina actress in Hollywood.
