            Humor and Horror In one… err… five? Lol Cinco is devoid of all those problems. It is a fresh fast-paced film that delivers just the right amount of shock. Cleverness differentiates Cinco from other run of the mill horror flicks. The title refers to the number of episodes thus pacing is of absolute importance. They said that this movie is a product of a new breed of creative and emboldened Philippine movie directors and visionaries that will push the HORROR GENRE into the next level. It was first conceptualized by two of ABS CBN’s brilliant and creative minds, Enrico Santos and Joel Mercado, to give the viewing public, 5 horrifying episodes with an unexpected threading by a single element.

With pokwang here in this movie, this is a sure comedy hit and her kissing scene with zanjoe marudo is both entertaining and  essential to the story as Pokwang will portray a love struck lady who will do everything to snatch the heart of Zanjoe's character. Also things to watch out for is  Sam Concepcion's squeaking like a girl is so funny. There's also a line from Baron Geisler that made the crowd go wild. But, I won’t bore you with details or spoilers. Haha

Cinco having 5 episodes compressed into one movie can make you think it's really short but not, since each episode is interrelated. It's like a one movie after all. And guys, you better watch out for the genius use of Yeng’s Hawak kamay in one of the episodes. I roared with laughter. Kudos to that scene!
