It was in the late 70's when I saw this film wherein Ariel Ureta accidentally hit a woman while driving and the woman turns out to be a vampire and continue to chase him. The episode was brilliantly shot in dream-like sequence matched with a creepy soundtrack in the background, both hilarious and creepy!
I presume this was made under Sine Pilipino Productions formed by Douglas Quijano and Joey Gosiengfiao in the early 70's. But I dunno whether it was in ZOOM ZOOM SUPERMAN or SI POPEYE ATBP that creepy episode.
If anyone has a copy, its now considered Holy Grail in Philippine Cinema! ;)
-
from what i understand even Douglas Quijano doesn't have copies of Sine Pilipino produced films. although Joey Gosiengfiao owns a pristine 35mm print of La Paloma Ang kalapating Ligaw which starred Celia Rodriguez and also produced by Sine Pilipino.
-
How many films did they produce, Jo? Only 4 like ECP? Was SUPERGIRL part of their company, their films will surely beat those Andy Warhol camp movies.
-
Supergirl wa produced by Prima Productions which was Pinky Montilla's home studio. Sine Pilipino produced the following films:
Zoom, Zoom, Superman,
Lipad, Darna, Lipad
Si Popeye Atbp
May Isang Tsuper Ng Taxi
La Paloma Ang Kalapating Ligaw
Putok Dito... Putok Doon

Thanks for the info, Jo. I still remember MAY ISANG TSUPER NG TAXI wherein Trixia Gomez was part of the cast.
I thought ELEKTRIKA was produced also by their company. ;D
-
oh yeah... Trixia Gomez was in the film as well which starred Orestes Ojeda. Elektrika was produced by Lyra Ventures, Inc. who also made the original Araw-Araw, Gabi-Gabi
-
Jo what film was the episode that has vampire chasing Ariel Ureta? Its wonderfully shot in dream-like sequence, even the crashing of the bottle was good.
-
it's in Si Popeye Atbp! the episode was directed by Joey Gosiengfiao where Orestes Ojeda played the vampire and Celia Rodriguez was his mistress, a high class fashion model who found Orestes naked in the streets of Makati.
-
Galing mo talaga, Jo. Yeah it was shot in Makati even the accident scene. I thought Celia Rodriguez was the vampire in that episode.
-
Celia eventually turned into a vampire. most of the scenes were shot in Makati during dusk. the fog was actually real!

That scene was imbedded in my memory until now.....cool! The effects were actually real! :o
Pinoymovies can you post some pics from those movies, I want to see again ZOOM ZOOM SUPERMAN in all its camp glory. ;D
btw.....the Apo Hiking Society were around since 1973......I think this is their first gig at the movies as the singing narrators in SI POPEYE ATBP.

^ No pics from any of the Sine Pilipino movies but I found movie ads of Sunugin ang Samar (Ramon Revilla and Pilar Pilapil, directed by Joey Gosiengfiao, probably an attempt to make a serious movie(?) and Bawal: Asawa Mo, Asawa Ko directed by Elwood Perez. Both movies were produced by Sine Pilipino.
-
Thanks for the added info, pinoymovies. They produced 10 movies already all presumably lost. There is an ad of ZOOM ZOOM SUPERMAN in another yahoo e-groups website but I can't find the link, pinoymovies.
