There is a new wave of talent emerging in the Philippines, a wave of film rising up away from the studios and embracing new directors, new genres, and new approaches to more familiar material. A focal point for the movement appears to be the Cinema One originals series - multiple titles from this year's edition have already been featured on Twitch - and this year Cinema One gets horrific with Di Ingon Nato (Not Like Us).
In a remote mountain village in Cebu, Philippines, a farmer will commit murder, a young doctor will lose her first patient, and a baranggay captain will find a girl, brutally murdered in a cemetery. Within the next few days, a mystery surrounding the entire boondock will be unraveled, and they will have to rely on each other to survive. And so begins the string of horrific events that is Di Ingon Nato, a film by Brandon Relucio and Ivan Zaldarriaga, which accounts the last days of the townspeople, and how they respond to an incurable afflication that can take away the living, as well as breathe life to the dead. Di Ingon Nato is a gritty ensemble piece (Lead by Rez Cortez, Mercedes Cabral, Franco Reyes, and Donna Gimeno) portraying how people cope with the death of their loved ones. It is also a film about how they react when their loved ones return......
A very artistic twist on the zombie genre the first trailer for the film has just arrived and looks absolutely fantastic. Take a look below.
