The
film tells the story of how a violent crime disrupts a quaint rural
town in Batangas. A girl’s dead body is discovered and puts the whole
town on trial while the former’s companion remains missing. The ensuing
media spectacle slowly exposes the town’s secrets. As they celebrate
its yearly festival by the lake, an unknowing sleeping evil unravels
and haunts the townsfolk.
With
a great handle of fear and paranoia, also with the awesome dark and
vivid photography, Leyco creates an atmosphere so tense that you can
feel the anguish in his characters. There is some excellent camera work
and sound in this movie. The film is slow but its horror is tense and
eerie. It's nice to see a frightening film like this that invests in a
chilling atmosphere of constant tension through moments of suspenseful
anticipation, an excellent score and an efficient camerawork that makes
the best cinematography. This is not your ordinary local horror suspense flick.
