iFlix, the world’s leading entertainment service for emerging markets, is thrilled to premiere Star Cinema’s latest horror hit, The Ghost
Bride.
From today, subscribers in the Philippines will be able to stream and download Chito Roño’s latest chilling blockbuster, just two months following its theatrical release – exclusively on iflix.
The Ghost Bride revolves around a mysterious Chinese tradition called a ghost wedding. Kim Chiu plays Mayen, a young woman trying to save her family home while taking care of her ailing father.
In return for a huge sum of money, she speaks to a Chinese matchmaker (Alice Dixson) and agrees to become a “ghost bride” to a wealthy but deceased Chinese man. But when the dead man’s ghost endangers Mayen’s family and loved ones, Mayen has to find a way to save her family, and ultimately, herself.
The Ghost Bride is Star Cinema’s third exclusive feature film on iFlix. The film is also the third time Kim has worked with the veteran film director, and is the actress’ first-ever solo leading film role. It also stars Matteo Guidicelli, Christian Bables, and Ina Raymundo.
iFlix Philippines Head of Content, Marketing and Operations, Georgette Tengco said, “The release of The Ghost Bride on iFlix is a continuation of our commitment to provide our viewers with content that is fresh and in tune with what our subscribers want to watch.
