Kuwaresma

The reviews here are obviously from paid pundits. There is nothing good about this movie. It's one of those typical pinoy horror movies that try real hard to be sublime and artistic, but fail at every aspect. No character development, nonsense plot, dismal execution and unsatisfying end.

Patience is needed to watch this film with its slow pace of a story. It's a mishmash of clichés "borrowed" from horror movies of the past. The characters navigating areas of their home through secret pathways within the walls of their house is such a "People Under The Stairs" ripoff, particularly the scene involving the boy and the dog. Dull and disappointing. P.S. The film is also quite dark, literally speaking, that you'll need to turn up the brightness of your TV screen or tablet.

I highly recommend everyone to choose another film if you don't want to wasting time like me. The film script is so terrible that make the film terrible too. I wasting my wonderful night with my brother to watch this film. What a disappointed film

I can't even begin to express how horribly stupid this movie is. It's a total mess and the director must be a total moron. Everything about this movie is either cliche or totally idiotic. A five year old could do better. If this is Philippine cinema then it deserves to die or rather should not have existed at all. This movie is evidence enough that most writers and specially directors in the Philippines are idiots. I would rather watch sharknado or scary movie. Skip this movie for your own sake and sanity. In fact skip everything from this director all together.

In a total of 1hr and 54mins you'll end up in a weird plotless movie. Its back and fourth search for the truth is quite boring. You'll fail to pick a character you'd root for. The musical scoring is not well thought off it probably used a mono channel so you dont get to experience that creeping from left to right sound and you wont get to have that tense feeling of a possible jump scare because you already know its coming. The back story of it all was poorly written. You'd get a far-fetched Amityville vibe. The characters we're okay but their stories weren't enough to get you to fully engage with the film like it lack motivation you wouldn't have strong feelings for them, you wouldn't care if evil or good wins. It wastes time as it progresses there could've been a better way to explain the plot but it just gives you flashbacks that arent useful at all, it confirms things but it doesn't explain the whole gist of whats actually going on. The make up was okay, placement of jump scares were decent. But the whole story is just, i cant even. To be honest I'd want to get back the time I've wasted watching this film.
