All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

Siquijor: Mystic Island (2007)

Starring: Ian Vereracion, Yul Servo, Assunta de Rossi
Director: Mark Philpp Espina

Premise:
A horror re-enactment show gets a prime time slot and decides to do the episode on a island known for is mystic claims by the people living there. After the shoot it seems like something came back with one of the crew members.

My Take:
Like a lot Filipino horror there is drama, a little bit a comedy, and some sort of ghost or possession involved. This one seems to check off the boxes for this items and while not great is a watchable flick.

Rating: In the middle

Watched: Netflix DVD
