SM Cinemas’ “AuGhost Exclusives Film Festival” with reduced ticket prices at P150.
AuGhost Exclusives features four films: two from Thailand—”Haunted Universities 3″ and “The Cursed Land;” one from Taiwan —”Mystery Writers;” and one from Cambodia —”Z-Mom.” These films, which exclusively debuted in Philippine cinemas via SM, were box office hits in their respective countries.
(Clockwise from top left) ‘Haunted Universities 3,’ ‘Mystery Writers, ‘The Cursed Land’ and ‘Z-Mom.’
“Haunted Universities 3” is a horror anthology with three campus-related stories, while “The Cursed Land” follows a widower and his daughter as they confront a djinn unleashed in their rundown home. “Mystery Writers” draws from the real-life 1984 Jin Xin Building fire in Taiwan, which claimed 19 lives, and turns it into a horror drama. “Z-Mom” is set at a holiday resort where a mother becomes a hero to save her family from a zombie horde that has overrun the island.
Once relegated to B-movie status, today’s horror films play a key role in keeping the film industry robust. Enjoy this taste of horror, Asia-style.
