As one of the most-awaited movies in the MMFF, Pagpag proved its promise and that it is worth-watching for. As Star Cinema and Regal Films - two of the best horror-film producers in the country - collaborate again for the first time in years, they were able to keep their legacy.
The story of Pagpag is somewhat similar to Feng Shui, a Kris Aquino horror movie. Cedric (Daniel Padilla) and his friends Hannah (Michelle Vito), Ashley (Miles Ocampo), Justin (CJ Navato) and Rico (Dominic Roque) came across the wake of Roman (Paulo Avelino) after bumping with Leni (Kathryn Bernardo) - a funeral parlor owner who organized Roman's wake. Lucy (Shaina Magdayao) welcomes them in the house. Cedric's friends soon violates the beliefs in the wake - which results later on to numerous and horrific deaths of the characters. Leni and Cedric are now deemed to solve the mystery.
