Eerie

The movie was extremely disappointing. I had high hopes because of the reviews on social media which turn out to be faked or paid reviews. Bea Alonzo and Charo Santos did their best in delivering their lines. However, the storyline is boring and predictable and even the evil ghost Erika is not scary at all. It looks like a film made to scare kids on the cinema. I have wasted my time and money on this overly hyped movie.

This movie thought it was redefining a whole genre of typical horror movies involving your Catholuc school, dorms, and our favorite comfort rooms, but it just smacked right into the cliches. Boring, predictable, eerie (where did the title come from? The supposedly suspenseful music that was also cliche?) music that should make you scared, the thunderstorm, the close-ups of saints' statues, the quick shots of ugly monster-like faces. All tricks to make you jump, because actually there's no story behind this. Oh, and adding the journalist? Come on.

Odd cliche-ridden horror flick on a strange Guidance Counsellor who dabbles in the supernatural to help teen girls who are dying one by one in a convent. Starts out slow but picks up in the end. A fine representation of the genre from Southeast Asia.

It is not a complex or very elaborated movie, it is simple, classic and conventional, but, it has good shots, nice cinematography, interesting plot and a good ending.

This movie has a huge problem: it's extremely repetitive. There are many scenes almost identical to each other, the central part of the movie is basically a never ending loop of predictable jump scares. The plot itself is very basic and the pacing is terrible.
