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.

Wakwak (1989)

Starring: Richard Gomez, Manilyn Reynes, Eduy Manzano, Janice de Belen
Director: Peque Gallaga, Lore Reyes

Premise:
A cult leader rallies his followers against soldiers trying to protect civilians.

My Take:
I've watched a lot of Filippino horror flicks and this one is completely different than most. It's grounded in reality with the cult story and a second major story with one of the women in the cult. It's an older looking movie but in a way that helps the overall feel of the movie.

Rating: In the middle

Watched: Netflix DVD
