The audience at the upcoming Metro Manila Film Festival will be the first to bear witness and bring a verdict to director Jason Paul Laxamana’s latest flick, Penduko. Until then, reactions are fair game as of Friday with the official trailer online from Viva Films.
Actor Matteo Guidicelli stars in the lead role based on celebrated comic artist Francisco Coching’s hit comic, about a 20 year-old wimp raised in the U.S. who journeys to the Philippines in search of his mother following the death of his father. As the trailer now finally reveals, that trip also includes our would-be hero tapping into some fledgling supernatural and physical abilities that could be the key to taking down evil forces cursing his family’s town.
This one gives jubilant family adventure with enticing Escrima action and fantasy thrills to whet the appetite. Check out the trailer and feel free to sign in and comnent below your thoughts on this newest adaptation.
