Tiktik - The Aswang Chronicles




**** Production Company: GMA Films / Reality Entertainment / AGOSTODOS Pictures / POSTMANILA / Mothership ****

With dark shades on and a burning cigarette between his lips, Makoy will do whatever it takes to get back his girlfriend Sonia, who's pregnant with their child. He makes the trip to remote Pulupandan, her hometown, and is quickly rebuffed by Sonia's mother Fely. But Makoy has never been one to give up. With the help of Sonia's father Nestor and his ever-dependable helper Bart, Makoy stays in town to surprise Sonia on her birthday. But alas, Makoy gets into trouble with a group of townsfolk who transform into tiktik—horrific, man-eating creatures with a taste for fetuses that are still in the womb. They are angry, and they are hungry for revenge. Will their thirst for blood and retribution be quenched? Will Makoy finally get his act together, protect Sonia and their baby, and once and for all prove himself worthy of their love? Who will win in the battle between men and monsters?

Spirit Of The Glass




**** Production Company: Canary Films ****

An aborted plan to fly to Boracay for the Lenten break brings a group of young people to horrors they never imagined.

What started out as fun and games brought by boredom opened doors to secrets they never wish they'd discover.

Kelly and her boyfriend, Choppy, decide to bring their friends to the young woman's ancestral house in the province.

There, together with buddies Anton and Cecille as well as Drue and Myra, the group rappled with the boredom of an isolated home in the tranquility of the far-flung areas of the city.

But it was Kelly's brother, Aries and his friend TJ who decide to play the Spirit of the Glass much against the warnings of the old caretaker, Mang Anduy.

What followed was unspeakable.

A spirit appears begging for their help. When all hell broke loose, the group decides to end the spiritual encounter unable to control the forces that they opened.

They were mistaken to think that the experience ended with the ritual. Now, Kelly and her friends are being individually haunted by the spirit.

In their final encounter, more secrets are revealed- that involves the brutal kidnapping and murder of the spirit that haunts - and the woman, who even as a spirit, he seeks to reconcile to prove his love.
