Complete List Of Pinoy Movies on DVD

[MigraineBoy]

 list updated 09/01/03  --kgwd.

I know this topic may overlap with the other topics here, but permit me to say that it's very hard to sift through all the topics here just to know what Filipino titles are out in the market. That's my excuse, and here's my list:

Did I miss anything?

[DVDiva]

Nice work, Basketcase! Thanks for taking the time to compile these.

[MigraineBoy]

No problem DVDgurl! Feel free to add to the list.

[weddingsingr]

Shucks na dami na palang titles. I don't seem to notice the news ones at Astro.

[blitzkrieg]

:)Frankly, our pinoy dvds belong to the not-so-impressive lot. I really look forward to seeing pinoy classics like BADJAO, BIYAYA NG LUPA, MAYNILA SA KUKO NG LIWANAG, INSIANG, HIMALA, SISTER STELLA L and all those great movies from the 70's and early 80's, immortalized thru dvd. These movies are worth collecting for. Or why not a Lino Brocka or Ishmael Bernal collection?

Why can't some historical commission do something about this. Budgetary constraints?

[weddingsingr]

Don't you think that there is something wrong with local DVDs? I mean it will most likely appeal to Pinoys in other countries that have different regions.  So how can they buy or even watch these DVDs if their players are locked to their respective regions.  Just a thought lang.

someone said in the forum that the filipino dvds have region 0, meaning, they can be played on any dvd player from whatever region.

New one, coming this Sept 11 and available for preorder at Amazon:

Macho Dancer

[MigraineBoy]

Thanks benny! I already updated the list.

[ten2089]

there's an outfit called steeplechase that's releasing asian movies on dvd in the US. aside from macho dancer, they also have burlesk king on their release calendar.

[barrid]

I was able to rent 'Linlang'. And it's for ALL region.

Do they have a website or something? It would really be something if some of those people could visit this site.

[Sumbong]

Burlesk King (directed by Mel Chionglo)
Release Date: September 25, 2001

[MigraineBoy]

List updated, thanks!

[barrid]

Wala pa bang bagong release na Pinoy movies maliban sa mga nakalista sa itaas?

[Dietsprite]

please inform me kung may DVD na Pangako... Ikaw Lang (AGa and Regine).. just want the movie in dvd.. kasi ayoko ng VCd (its so bulky.. 2 cd's pa yun) pero kung sa dvd 1 whole movie in a 1dvd.. diba?..

thanks..

just inform me in my email or here in pinoydvd.com  thanks..

[Phobos]

Dietsprite Don't worry. I am also on the lookout for the release of Pangako...Ikaw Lang. I'm pretty sure that it's due to be released since Joyce Bernal's other romantic comedies (Dahil May Isang Ikaw and Kailangan Ko'y Ikaw) made it to DVDs.

[THE_EDGE]

ARE THOSE TAGALOG MOVIES HAVE ENGLISH SUBTITLES OR ENGLISH LANGUAGE IN DOLBY 5.1 AT LEAST? IT WOULD BE NICE ISN'T IT IF THEY ARE TRANSLATED AS WELL IN SOME OTHER LANGUAGE, RIGHT?  :-/ :-/ :-/

[Dietsprite]

out na dis wednesday ang PANGAKO IKAW LANG in video [vhs and vcd's] kasama na kaya yung dvd diyan?

[Noel_Vera]

Hi, first time to visit this thread.

Saw the list of available DVDs...it's not a very good list of films.  Macho Dancer and the two Joyce Bernal romantic comedies are the most watchable of the lot (well, For Your Height Only has some camp value), but I'd hate to represent the Philippines with this paltry selection.

On the question of subtitles...they don't do English titles lightly, it's very expensive, paying for translator, spotter, then actually printing the titles will cost from a hundred to two hundred thousand pesos...no, the studios, especially nowadays, are not interested in spending the money.

There is this government body called IFFCOM that will reimburse a studio for expenses in showing to a film festival abroad, but it's a reimbursement deal, and studios aren't even willing to advance the cash.

That's the reality of it, folks.  With amateur subtitling techniques, that may be the only hope...

[Phobos]

I've watched Dahil May Isang Ikaw & Kailangan Ko'y Ikaw before and I was very impressed with the subtitles done for those two DVDs. As far as the English and Tagalog subtitles are concerned, they were professionally done. In synch and accurate.

[Kahon]

To whoever is interested:

Filipino director Eddie Romero has these films out on DVD (or on pre-order):

1.  Twilight People
2.  Beyond Atlantis
3.  Black Mama, White Mama
4.  Beast of the Yellow Night

Cheesy horror or women-in-prison b-movies. So bad, they're good !

Some feature filipino actors like Vic Diaz and Eddie Garcia(!), but american-produced.

(Source:  amazon.com and imdb website)

[Noel_Vera]

Great list of films on Romero.  Always wanted to see his B movies, Gerry De Leon's too (IMDb would have em, tell you if they're on DVD).

De Leon's Terror is a Man, the second remake of Island of Dr. Moreau (not the terrible Michael York version), was shown in the Berlin Film Festival last, uh 1999 I think, part of their Artifical Man or something retrospective.  I hear it was sandwiched between Blade Runner and Metropolis.  

[Kahon]

Gerry de Leon's b-movies: Terror is a Man and Curse of the Vampires are on DVD.

[Noel_Vera]

Glad to hear about the subbed DVDs or VCDs or whatever; I just don't think the very best of Philippine cinema is being subbed,unless they have gone to film festivals.

[Noel_Vera]

The list still doesn't improve much with updating.

For what it's worth, some films available on VHS:

Scorpio Nights  now on DVD --kgwd.

Boatman

Segurista

Rizal sa Dapitan   now on DVD --kgwd.

Babae sa Bubungang Lata

Eskapo

Sisa

Lihim ni Madonna

Pangarap ng Puso  

Pila Balde

Kriminal ng Baryo Concepcion

Biyaheng Langit   now on DVD --kgwd.

Which are a lot better films, I think, than the ones listed above.  Philipppine cinema is still in the VHS stage I'm afraid...VCD at most.

[Alfie]

Anybody knows if there is an ORAPRONOBRIS DVD transfer?
This film has been marketed thru the laser Disc Format before, seems it's a good candidate to be transfered unto DVD.  

[barrid]

Hindi pa ba bumababa ang presyo ng mga Tagalog DVDs? Keep us posted please.

[Jonassen]

Yup, yup Noel_vera, that's definitely THE LIST !!

Sana nga, they release other filmfest movies, too like Isla among others.

[JT]

Wala pa ba sa Tagalog DVD's yung mga Joey De Leon & Rene Requestas series like Starzan, etc o kaya yung kay FPJ like Ang Panday, etc
