Judy Ann tells the media how she's been in the fence of doing this because she basically didn't want to be away from her family, something that also has stopped her from doing films and projects in the past. She's a mother and a wife above anything else, but got to talk to Ryan about it later on because she had a feeling she wants to do this because it's a Ricky Lee piece and will be directed by Rahyan Carlos (who does acting workshops for Star Magic and is certified to do the Chubbuck technique). This is a horror movie, and right up the director's alley, and he got to do the workshop with Judy Ann and Sam so he would be able to know more about each other before filming starts. Direk Rahyan is also part of Happy Karga Films and partner AMP Studios (Canada) which will be producing the movie.

The cast and producers talked lengthily about this film being showcased in certain film festivals which they plan to do before having a theatrical release in the third or fourth quarter of this year. They say it's actually easier to have this released internationally because it's not comedy which would have more local context. So surely, there will be a chance for this project to get Judy Ann, Sam and the ensemble cast to win international awards which Liza Diño-Seguerra will be working on in the next few months. The computer graphics will also be done by Direk Rahyan Carlos' team which is the cream of the crop in the PH film scene, all of whom have worked in his past projects so you're sure this will be done right.
There will also be a couple of actors from Canada who will be joining the cast, and they've already scouted a few locations before filming. There will be a few of them already flying there in a week's time to make sure once Judy Ann, Sam and the cast lands, they start grinding.
So here's a toast to the men and women behind this film! Congratulations and I hope to see the movie in cinemas soon!
