Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang Trailer

Are you looking for a movie to watch with your loved ones? Why not try a local film for a change and help the movie industry in the Philippines?

I was watching the evening news on TV when my attention was caught by the trailer of this movie which I can say is not a typical horror movie trailer. From the trailer, it appears to be a horror and suspense movie mixed with a love story in the local Filipino setting. I can say that the cinematography is superb and the story looks promising.

The movie is top billed by Erich Gonzales and Derek Ramsay.

Directed by Richard Somes and produced by Skylight Films, Reality Entertainment & Star Cinema, the film is set to open in theaters nationwide on March 14, 2012.

Below is the synopsis of the movie taken from iWantv.com:

Coming from a tragic past during World War II, Corazon only wanted one thing in life- to conceive a child. A loving wife to Daniel, she wishes that their five-year marriage be blessed with a baby. But fate has not been helpful as all her efforts at conception seemed futile. Together with Daniel, they leave town in search for a woman who could possibly help her. She is given a statue of San Gerardo, the patron saint of pregnant women, and was told to keep her faith no matter what happens. Her devotion pays off when she finally bears a child. On the day of the child’s birth, they found the baby dead. Corazon’s world is shattered. She has kept her faith but her child was taken from her. Corazon’s anger envelopes the town in horror as a child dies each night. Can Corazon ever forgive the fate she has suffered? Will she lift her curse to spare the innocent children in their town? Will her love for Daniel prevail over the hatred in her heart? Or will her wrath live on up to the present day and remind everyone of the story behind the first aswang?
