Run, don't walk ...
To your nearest Borders, Suncoast, Reel Collections, Best Buy -- wherever you get your movies -- and buy Aswang. I bought this film on a whim, reading that it was the first horror film to be presented at the Sundance Film Festival. It blew me away. I can officially say that this is now my favorite horror film of all time. I don't want to spend a lot of time here writing the details (I'll save that for the Indie forum -- and will probably write a review in the Contributor's Corner), but it has everything that makes a good horror film a GOOD horror film (in my opinion.) Think "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" meets "Rosemary's Baby" ... only, instead of a cult of Satan worshippers (or a cannibalistic family), you have a group of the creepiest vampires I have ever seen on screen. I can't believe I haven't heard anything about this movie from anyone here ... then again, I haven't heard of it myself until I bought it.
So ... I'm done.
