More and more groundbreaking
independent films have been making waves in the Philippine cinema industry
these days. In fact, modern Filipino viewers are looking for more of
these quality, unique, and creatively-crafted cinematic productions. If
you and your family are into indie films, you don’t have to wait for annual film festivals just to enjoy these films.
Get to experience the artistic wonder
of indie films right in the comforts of home with
SKY’s latest
offerings. Catch two quality indie films, Bitukang Manok and Resbak exclusively
on SKYcable and Destiny Cable.
Bitukang Manok, directed by Alec Figuracion, is a
horror-suspense film about a seemingly never-ending road leading nowhere.
It features Quezon Province’s famed Old Maharlika Highway, referred to as
“Bitukang Manok” because of its sharp curves, where three groups of strangers
find themselves isolated and trapped by mysterious, supernatural forces.
As they try to leave and survive the long and winding road they must confront
their psychological demons and challenge the unknown, unexplainable forces
behind their situation. Bitukang Manok stars Missy Maramara, Guji
Lorenzana, Ken Anderson, and Mara Lopez. Bitukang Manok will be aired on
channel 22 (SD) and channel 702 (HD).
Kapamilya stars, Nash Aguas and Ejay
Falcon, star in the indie film, Resbak, directed by Toto Natividad.
This is Nash Aguas’ first indie action film where he portrays the role of a
street kid whose father (Ejay Falcon) used to be a notorious hitman.
Eventually though, he found himself in the same criminal path as his
father. However, despite attempts by his father to leave behind his old
life, a random act of violence will bring him back to his old ways in order to
save his son’s life. Catch Resbak in HD on channel 703 and SD on channel
23.
