GIVEN the choice from among the five episodes featured in the horror flick ng Star Cinema Cinco, Direk Frasco Mortiz said he would have chosen the one assigned to top and box-office director Cathy Garcia-Molina. But after watching Puso, the episode na idinirek ni Cathy, Direk Frasco said he wondered kung naidirek niya ito tulad ng pagkadirek ni Cathy. Puso, Direk Frasco says of the episode, is maituturing na the heart ng buong pelikula. It is the first horror movie na aaliwin ka sa simula, na susundan ng kilig bago pumasok ang pananakot.” No wonder daw, susog pa ni Direk Frasco, that Direk Cathy describes Puso, starring Pokwang and Zanjoe Marudo, as a romcom (romance-comedy)-cum-horror movie. * * * The episode assigned to Direk Frasco is titled Braso. And in the cast of the episode are three of the popular Gigger Boys, Sam Concepcion, AJ Perez at Robi Domingo. May pagka-Pinoy horror ang touch na ginawa niya sa Braso. And he is pretty satisfied with how the movie came out. “Everything,” Direk Frasco said, “just came into place. At home sa kanilang roles ang mga bagets na featured sa pelikula. They all proved natural sa parts nila bilang college neophytes na under initiation to become full-fledged members of their fraternity. “The initiation calls for them to spend a night sa isang morgue na may isang bangkay na nakalatag. For want of anything to do, or obviously para maibsan ang takot na unti-unti nang ‘umaalipin’ sa kanilang tatlo, the three made fun of the bangkay. Surprise of all surprises, the bangkay came to life and got back at them. * * * Direk Cathy, for her part, said eager siya na mapanood ang episode ni Enrico Santos, who, like the other four directors, Direk Frasco, Ato Bautista and Nick Olanka, is making his first crack bilang director. Direk Enrico’s episode is titled Paa. Itinuturing ni Direk Cathy si Direk Enrico na henyo sa larangang kanyang ginagalawan. A business unit head ng ABS CBN, he dabbles not just in producing TV series and shows, sumusulat pa din siya. With the movie, Huling Sayaw topbilled by Aga Muhlach and Angel Locsin and directed by Olive Lamasan, Direk Enrico tries his hand for the first time na sumulat ng istorya at script para sa pelikula. In Paa, Direk Enrico has one of the versatile young actress Jodi Sta. Maria playing the lead role. Mata, the fourth episode, is directed naman by Ato Bautista, na kilala among his colleagues as the “film man.” Pinakamarami siyang nagawang movie among indie film directors. According to Direk Ato, he is out to impress not just his producer (Star Cinema) but his audience, in particular, with the way na pinamahalaan niya ang episode na in-assign sa kanya, Mata. Lucky daw siya to have Maja Salvador and Rayver Cruz as his stars sa Mata. “We all worked as a team,” sabi niya. “Kaya, feel na feel sa pelikula lalo’t sa mga nakakatakot na scenes ng episode, ang efforts na ibinigay niya para sa pelikulang ito ay magkaroon, wika nga, ng kakaibang interpretation of fear. Kilala ang pangalan ni Direk Nick Olanka bilang writer who is one of the ‘brains’ behind the success of the award-winning indie movie Adela. Ganunpaman, natuklasan ang promise niya bilang director nang magdirek siya ng episode about forbidden love sa top-rater na drama anthology Maalala Mo Kaya. The episode about forbidden love starred Kim Chiu and Carlo Aquino. In Cinco, he directs the episode Mukha na sa iisang silid lang naganap. Naka-focus din lang sa iisang tao na ginagampanan ni Mariel Rodriguez. Mariel’s co-stars are Nanding Josef at Ketchup Eusebio, among others. Direk Cathy Garcia, the only one with more-than-enough credentials (box-office director is just one of them) na featured sa Cinco, described Direk Nick as a cool director. Hindi raw kasi ito sumisigaw o kaya’y nara-rattle. And Direk Cathy should know. Being, wika nga, the most veteran director in the group of five (directors), Star Cinema, likewise, assigned her to (oversee) the first-time megmen. From Direk Cathy, she suggests na panoorin ang Cinco from beginning to end, dahil dito matutuklasan kung anong unifying element mayroon ang kabuuan ng movie. |
