VILLA ESTRELLA

Yesterday, me and my older sister watch Villa Estrella at SM Southmall Cinema 2.
Maybe now you are asking why i have watch the movie, maybe because we are used to watch Tagalog horror movies. Some says its very jologs to watch these kind of movies but sometimes you will see that Filipino movies can be compare to Hollywood movies but lesser the effect. I wonder if Pinoy directors and producer were given more opportunity and more budget and breaks then we can says we can infiltrate Hollywood movies.

Ok, so much of my day dreaming.. hehehe

Taste first the trailer of the movie before i gave out a synopsis and a feedback about this.




Hope, you liked the teaser.

Here is my synopsis and feedback..

Well, The movie starts at the house of Anna played by Shaina Magdayao who is sleeping but was awake because of a bad dreams (usually someone that is being drowned) and later she packing her things and decided to flee to his father played by John Estrada with the help of his boyfriend Dennis played by Geoff_Eigenmann. Anna's father is an alcoholic and a smoker and he always physically hurting Anna when he's drunk, actually he emotionally and physically torturing her. i can say that he is just too coward of everything that is why he is doing power tripping to Anna(just my opinion.)
Back to the movie. But Anna was not able to do it as plan because she remembers what her mother(Yayo Martinez) said about not leaving her father. And looked at her locket with the picture of her mother inside.
Morning came and she was informed by her father that Alex played by Jake_Cuenca, will come to be picked her up for some business purposes(Wow! the car is a BMW). Actually, Alex and Anna are childhood friends because their father are i think best of friends. With this situation both party wanted an arrange marriage except for Anna. Well, Alex loves Anna so much in this movie.
The next scene was in the car where Alex and Anna was talking about the relationship. Alex was Anna's ex boyfriend. But, Anna think that Alex has the same personality as her father who is a dictator so this means she do not want to take back Alex in her life. Poor Alex.
Alex informed Anna that they are going to Villa Estrella. This is an old resort owned by their families.

Villa Estrella, the real story started.

Mang Agusting, the care taker of the resort who suffers alot upon learning that her daughter Ading got lost. Some say that her daughter flee with his boyfriend or she was already dead which he never believed. There was a belief that you can see the soul of a dead person when you look at the mirror at night. Almost every night the poor care taker look at the mirror in the woods. He also wants cornick (sun dried and oil cooked corn).

Aling Susy, she's the all around helper of the resort and the mother of Karen and Giselle.

Karen, a little girl who is about 7 to 10 years old. A crippled child with an imaginary friend Danica. Danica is her friend who died in pool drowning inside Villa Estrella while saving Karen's doll. Such a friendly child.

Giselle, older sister of Karen with a mysterious act.

This was this mysterious teenage girl whom met Anna met in the resort which is being played by
Maja Salvador.

Guess i already put almost all the character.

Let's get started.
Well, when Alex and Anna arrived at the the place they were met by Mang Agusting and Alex's uncle who i think the over all in-change of the renovation of the resort. Mang Agusting recognized Anna but Anna was not able to recognized the old man. He also offer her cornick and was called to checked something.

Anna felt the eerie while inside the resort. A pool with water which is so dirty but i guess not that smelly because people to stay in this part of the Villa.

While shes checking the place she was able to meet Karen. Karen introduced her to Danica. Then came Aling Susy. The middle aged woman told Anna about Danica. Then came the mysterious girl.

Because of some reasons. Anna and Alex decided stay for a night in the resort. Because of this Anna called Dennis and told him about the situation. Dennis decided to go to Villa Estrella with his friend played by the commediane Estong.

Alex's uncle and his friend was drinking beside the pool. One by one they were pulled by an Algae child or woman.

At night, Karen was awake by a child i dont know if this is Danica. The child was so mean and eerie. She told Karen that doll was in the pool so Karen tried to get the doll she was pulled in the pool. Her mother and everybody was looking for her. Then they came to the pool and Karen came to out of the water with such a different personality but of course this was not notice by everyone except by Anna.

Anna was left in the pool. It was her turned pulled by the pool. She remembered what blind palm reader told her that when shes in the middle of death and life, a good soul will then guide her towards the light which is happening that very moment(Well, i guess if the movie have a lot of water scene that will be nice). Alex saved her. She got unconcious. When she was awake, Maja Salvador was beside her. Maja noticed the colloid on the her back asked her where she get that Anna told Maja that she was cause by her father.

Dennis came and tried to get Anna but Alex was able to discovered this so the men got into one on one fight with the help of Dennis' friend. Anna was left in the pool. The 3 was able to knocked down Alex.

While on their way, Anna noticed that her locket was missing because of this they got back in the resort. Dennis friend looked it in the pool using a net. Estong was not able to retrieved clothes.
Of course, Estong became the victim. But before he was eaten by the pool. He said the most funniest script in the movie. " Are you a monster, an alien?". Hehehehe. With such facial and a face like that what should i do laugh out loud. Because of this, the two decided to stay in the tree house.

Well, the next morning came. Dennis decided to look for his friend. He was trapped inside a hole and was unconcious for quiet sometime.

Anna was awake and looking for Dennis. She sees Aling Susy packing their things inside a jeep because of what happened the other night. Anna was able to met Giselle for the first time which she was mistaken to be Maja Salvador. She gave Karen her sketch. The girl said "This is not me!". Weird but the crippled girl was healed with a nasty attitude. Anna camed to her senses and realized that Maja was already death. In the house, Maja was asking Anna if she know about her. That she was not help by Anna during her death.

Dennis was awake and unable to get someone's help he decided to check whats the other side of the cave. Inside he discovered a corpse beneath the pool, with a bracelet with a the name "ANDREA" engrave to it . He was able to go to the bridge in the entrance of Villa Estrella and sees Alex's father.

After Dennis introduced himself to Alex's father and told him about the corpse he was killed by the man using a gun. He felt in the bridge and died immediately. Upon knowing this Alex's father told Anna's father about the incident so they decided leave the place.

Alex's father was beside the pool. The Algae woman who came to be Andrea. She killed him and pulled her in the pool.

Anna's father and Alex was fighting because of Anna. Anna run into the room of Man Ading and was able to discover an Altar with the picture of Andrea on it.

Flashback of what had happened. Andrea was the only child of Mang Agusting and a friend to Anna when she was a child. Was killed and raped by Anna's and Alex's fathers and Anna witnessed the whole thing but was afraid to her father that is why she just kept quite.

Anna told Mang Augustin that Andrea was already death. Anna's father is pulling her outside the villa to escaped Mang Agusting killed Anna's father using a knife.

Anna was so afraid Andrea came to her. She told how it was losing someone and wanted to use the leading character's body to be able to hug her father but Anna was hesitated because she have to face death for Andrea to get her body.

Next scene, she sees her locket in the next the woman's statue in the side of the pool.Trying to get necklace the whole statue anf Anna fell in the pool. Again, she sees Andrea as the one get her body and a bad soul and her mother as the good soul.

Years after, Anna and Alex get married and Mang Agusting as theiw houseboy. Andrea inside the body of Anna.

The ending was it was Anna's turn to reclaimed her body.

That's all..
