Emotions run high in three movies premiering on television including 100 Tula Para Kay Stella, Ang Mananaggal sa Unit 23B, and Double Barrel via SKY Movies Pay Per View until Nov. 10.
Reminisce youth and the pangs of unrequited love with JC Santos and Bela Padilla in the hit indie movie 100 Tula Para Kay Stella, the story of love-struck stuttering Fidel (JC Santos) pining for carefree rocker Stella (Bela Padilla). Moving away from light-hearted teen romance, it was a hit among millennial audiences becoming the top-grosser and winning the Audience Choice Award at the first Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino by the Film Development Council of the Philippines.
Another movie to watch is Prime Cruz’s Ang Manananggal sa Unit 23B. Cruz’ sophomore offering uses the manananggal folklore to shape an entertaining feature. Jewel (Ryza Cenon) is a manananggal in modern Manila. She is in search, not of food, but for someone who will love and accept her for who she is. Cruz won Best Director at the 2016 QCinema Film Festival for this modern day supernatural Romeo and Juliet.
Fans of Seklusyon’s Phoebe Walker can look forward to watching her in Double Barrel. She plays Martha, the wife of a former drug peddler roped into killing drug lords with her husband to keep him from prison. Toto Natividad directs.
