Today the much awaited horror film of the year is finally
open! The Healing which stars , the “Star for All Seasons” – Batangas Governor
Vilma Santos-Recto, Kim Chiu and Pokwang and directed by famed director, Chito
Rono.
After a decade, highly acclaimed-director Direk Chito and
Ate Vi is back to offer another unforgettable horror experience.
The Healing is a screenplay written by renowned writer, Roy
Iglesias. As Governor Vi narrates,” The
Healing is a totally a new brand of suspense-horror that will surely make a
mark in the Philippine horror cinema. Stories about the Filipino tradition of
going to faith healers for guidance and treatment of ailments have not yet been
tackled in-depth in movies. And in our film, the viewers will not just be
horrified, they’ll be somehow challenged to think as how faith healing has
already been part of our culture."
This movie is very special as it also marks Gov. Vi’s 50th
Anniversary in showbiz. During the bloggers conference, Gov. Vi shares that she
specifically requested for this movie, and to attest to this, Direk Chito said
that “The Healing” is tailor-made just for
“The Star-for-All-Seasons”.
“The Healing” not only boosts of its content but also the
powerhouse casts that it has! Star Cinema also gathered Kim Chui, Janice de
Belen, Mark Gil,Pokwang, Martin del Rosario, Allan Paule, Cris Villanueva,
Daria Ramirez, Ces Quesada, Ynez Veneracion, Simon Ibarra, Abi Bautista and
Joel Torre. The line-up of casting proves that the movie bridges the gap of
generation with the varied participation
of the other actors in the movie.
I am excited to see this movie also because this is my first
time to see Kim Chiu in a Horror genre-film. I would like to see how flexible
she is with a different genre this time.
The Healing has been the first movie given by the Cinema
Evaluation Board with two kinds of rating. The first one is with R-13 and R-18
Director’s Cut. So don’t be confused if you get to see two ratings once you
troop to the nearest cinema near you!
The Healing is now open in 100 cinemas nationwide. Be sure
to watch it with a companion!
