These women are not passive victims, as is so often the case in horror films. Producer Ben Cosgrove emphasizes, “A lot of slasher films have treated female characters as objects who are just there to be killed.  We wanted to flip that notion on its head. Rather than allowing themselves to get picked off one by one, the women group together and marshal their resources so they can fight together.”

Keeping crazy out of Christmas with GCash

Traffic is worse than ever before. Hailing a taxi ride is grueling. The malls are now teeming with harried shoppers. The lines everywhere are getting slower and longer. You wonder, how can we ever cut the crazy out of Christmas and have a calm and stress-free holiday instead?

If the thought of beating the monstrous Metro Manila traffic and enduring the long lines in banks just to finish bank errands before the long holiday break makes you cringe, going digital is the way.
