Horror movie references curfews under Marcos’ Martial Law and COVID-19 lockdowns
WHAT would it be like living in Manila if, once midnight falls, no one is safe? That is the thesis of Dodo Dayao’s horror film,
Midnight in a Perfect World, set to show on Upstream starting Jan. 29.
Starring Glaiza de Castro and Jasmine Curtis-Smith, the film is set in a dystopian version of Metro Manila where people mysteriously disappear during nightly blackouts at midnight. The two women and two of their friends (played by Anthony Falcon and Dino Pastrano) get caught in a blackout outside and must find a safe house to survive only, the safe house they thought was safe, isn’t.

“
HILING” hitmaker Mark Carpio is the most recent addition to Viva Records’ growing slate of singers and songwriters, coming shortly after announcements that KPop star Minzy and R&B singer Daryl Ong also joined the recording company.
His transfer from Warner Music Philippines to Viva Records had been a year in the making, according to Mr. Carpio, and the reason for the switch is because “he wanted to go mainstream,” he told reporters during a digital conference on Jan. 13 via Zoom.
This means that Mr. Carpio’s songs will be used by Viva Films as theme songs for its movies. To date, he has two songs ready although the production of the movies the songs will be used for were affected by the pandemic. A third song is in the works.
