It’s not just the first movie to pit monsters against a Stingray tail, but interestingly the first full-length Filipino film shot using green screen. Let me set the scene: Makoy tries to win back his pregnant wife by buying her a pig for her family birthday party, only to find out that the gypsies he bought it from are ‘aswangs’ (shape-shifting monsters in Filipino folklore) that are only after his newborn child for supper.
Remember the I for Invincible segment of ABCs of Death 2 (you know, where an old indestructible hag is burnt alive by her children for her inheritance)? Well that darkly comic contribution to the anthology sequel was the work of Filipino director Erik Matti, and if you liked that you’ll no doubt find penchant for his feature-length vampire-cum-home-invasion flick – just as I have.
