“The Road”
Directed by Yam Laranas
GMA Films
Beautiful cinematography, masterful evoking of mood and clever storytelling structure by Yam Laranas. But why do some characters act like they’re following a script and not their inner motivations? Thus certain illogical moments break the spell and remind viewers that they are just watching a movie. Carmina Villaroel is a hoot, and child actor Renz Valerio is so adorable. I was too distracted by his crooked smile and pinch-worthy cheeks to be scared during his portion of the film. And what’s this?! Jaclyn Jose, underused?! The horror!

I had problems, too, with how some characters were underused and not well concluded. But, quoting my friend "at least some decent Filipino-made horror."
Also, I can't wait for that Renz kid to grow up.
