Shake, Rattle & Roll Extreme

Uttermost disappointment. The writing, production design, and cinematography were such a mess. What a waste of talent for the outstanding actors and actresses. The stories on all these three segments were unoriginal and unappealing. There were scenes that didn't make sense. Props were seemingly poor. The script felt like a bunch of fillers and sounded unnatural. Even the choice for music could have been better. Nothing matches up. Truly, the whole movie was unnervingly cringe.

The franchise is well-loved by Filipinos yet it keeps on getting worse and worst. Thank God it was not qualified as an entry for the MMFF.

Traditionally, the anthology format of Shake, Rattle & Roll brings a mix of supernatural horror, suspense, and psychological thrills. However, XTreme seems to have forgotten its purpose, offering segments that feel more like heavy emotional dramas with a sprinkle of horror elements rather than the other way around. Instead of heart-pounding scares, we get drawn-out character conflicts, sentimental backstories, and tearjerker moments that overshadow any tension the film tries to build.

Missed Opportunities The film had all the ingredients for a solid horror experience-creepy settings, eerie folklore, and potentially terrifying creatures. Yet, instead of maximizing these, it wastes time developing emotional arcs that feel out of place in a horror anthology. The pacing drags, and just when a segment starts to pick up momentum, it pulls back in favor of sentimental storytelling. While character development is important, it shouldn't come at the expense of the horror experience that audiences paid to see.

Horror That Fails to Deliver Jump scares feel predictable, and the atmosphere lacks the tension that made past Shake, Rattle & Roll entries memorable. The CGI and practical effects are decent, but they don't make up for the lack of truly unsettling moments. It's disappointing to see a franchise that once mastered the art of Pinoy horror now struggling to balance its tone.

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.

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.

I am a fan of shake rattle and roll since I was in elementary in the 1980s. Even though technology is not yet developed around that time, the series movies and script writing was excellent. But this new film of shake rattle and roll extreme is far way to be good in today's time with new technologies and new innovation in movie industry. Script writing is bad, actors are bad, musical scoring is not on point, lightings in some parts are bad. The only thing that good acting here is ms. Iza calzado, the rest can have more training. Lame actors, OVER ACTING that makes it bad and cringey. Bring back the old shake, rattle and roll.
