everyone in the theater laughed....., 10 March 2002
1/10
Author: Andy Sandfoss from Cold Spring, KY

Saw this one in one of those small duplex theaters that sprung up in shopping centers during the seventies (on a double bill with something called "Scream Bloody Murder"). The cheapness of the special effects and the unrelenting mediocrity of the acting and direction had everyone in the theater laughing out loud after about twenty minutes. It was so persistent that I noticed that an usher actually came into the theater to see what was going on. Many years later, I was able to find a video copy for my bad movie collection. By the way, time has not improved my perspective on this one. Some films grow on you, but this one could only if it were a jungle fungus.

I have no desire or need to include any details of the plot or any spoilers. The film has no plot worth discussing and was already spoiled - by its cast and producers. I am sorry to say this was the first example of Filipino cinema I've come across. Hope they have better films in Manila these days.
