Shake, Rattle and Roll Extreme

The Philippines' longest-running horror anthology series that is always shown in cinemas during the Christmas season. However, this one felt a little flat.

For the Glitch segment, while Iza Calzado and Donna Cariaga both delivered, something about it seems off. It was dragging and messy with sub-plots that were totally ignored in hopes some of us wouldn't even notice (I did). What was the point of the beginning aka the California setting when the people aren't even related to the main characters? Good thing I noticed the Gary stuffed toy which is the only thing connecting what goes down in the story that was pure chaos. There was no character development here whatsoever and no offense, but the performances of the kids were a bit too forced that still needs a tad bit of work. This segment was the worst. Also, the title does not even fit with the plot- I think Gary or "Friend" would've been more suitable. [1/5]

Mukbang was more comedic rather than a horror storyline because of the actors' performances. Still, it has a darker side of its story with a cannibalism setting however, I think the plot twist could've been revealed at the end rather letting the audience already know in the beginning-even when some could pick it up themselves. Esnyr Ranollo was the best one here, in my opinion. If this segment had something more to deliver especially with its characters that I don't even care for, this could've been way better. Great concept, but effort was wasted a bit. [3/5]

Rage was the best. I think in every Shake, Rattle, and Roll film, they always save the best for last and this one did prove that theory. Great performances with a successful story and characters that were really developed towards the end. The characters seem tolerable, more believable, and actually someone you could care about. Love that a final girl is once again represented in a Filipino film, too. [4/5]

Shake Rattle & Roll Extreme: Filipino anthology horror film with Three segments. Nothing particularly original and the CGI is a bit shaky at times but it's worth watching. The three chapters are each 45 minutes long, a running time which is justified only in Rage. Glitch: if you're a little girl then be careful of borrowing your nanny's phone and coming across an old children's TV show hosted by Gary the Goat. He comes to life possessing a stuffed toy goat (now it's overstuffed) and mayhem ensues. Some very graphic violent scenes as a pet and people are slain. The demon looks like Krampus and there;s a reason for this which becomes clear as the story unfolds. Directed by Richard V. Somes, Written by Noreen Capili & Anton Santamaria. 5.5/10. Mukbang: a group of social influencers travel to a mansion to collaborate with two influencers who live there. A hard wokking chef influencer cooks up interesting cuts of meat, It soon becomes clear to us that the pork involved is actually long pig. The influencers are attacked by shapeshifters - Aswangs. Who then assume their identities. Some really dark humour and satire as well as plenty of gore. Directed by Jerrold Tarog, Written by Tarog & Rona Lean Sales. 6/10. Rage: Meteors fall, parasitic creatures emerge and turn humans into crazed Zomboids. They are violent and fast moving, charging in hordes and individually. Retaining most of their intelligence they're smarter than your average Zombie. Much hacking with hatchets, biting, shooting and running over Zomboids who seem to be still alive if "possessed". It becomes clear that the meteors have fallen in at least 40 countries, this is a world wide event. This segment has the potential to be expanded into a full length movie. Directed by Joey de Guzman, Written by Trisha Mae Delez. 8/10. On Netflix. Overall score 6.5/10.

I don't understand why a big production would bother making stuff that's been done before and isn't even realistic. The gory bits don't look gory enough - the blood and cuts just seem fake, and sometimes there's blood but no cuts, which doesn't make sense. The props look so very fake too, despite the effort put into creating visually stunning scenes. The acting is bad, and the things the actors do don't make sense either. I used to love watching "Shake, Rattle, and Roll," but now it seems like they're just trying too hard to be trendy and cool for the Gen Z crowd, sacrificing quality along the way. The actors aren't believable enough for everyone to connect with, and the stories feel like they've been recycled and lack originality. Even in the old "Shake, Rattle, and Roll," despite the absence of modern technology, the movies and script writing were excellent. However, this new film of "Shake, Rattle, and Roll Extreme" falls far short of today's standards, with bad script writing, acting, musical scoring, and lighting. And it's also disappointing that the title suggests it's extreme, but it falls short of that expectation, making it feel misleading. There's a notable lack of standout performances, while the rest could use more training, their performances marred by overacting.

It's been 9 years since the fifteenth installment came to an end until Regal made a surprising announcement for the franchise to comeback. All the scariness. All the bloodiness. And all the mayhem. Iza has finally came back since SRR 8 but one day there will be a new SRR film the might be as more scarier than previous installments. I also praise the 3 directors who worked so hard with all of the support and care and the cast was nearly remarkable in their chemistry. Sadly, it's a shame that not only the movie never qualify for the MMFF, it was the second film that never premiere on every December most likely it was premiered on November.

The movie is a great bad movie if you know what i mean, there are many serious moments where you can't help but laugh at the decisions and directing there are abit of cringe in the movie, it seems like a marvel movie at some point where the mother is protecting her children. It is a very fun movie to watch with your family because you can just laugh at the jumpscares at the movie. The movie is also very goffy and funny. The masks here also reminds me of corey taylor from slipknot. The cgi can be horrendous but i guess it's fine and not that much of a big deal. The gore isn't that scary not as scaty as other shows.
