Insidious: Out of the Further (2026 Film)

I was able to watched the sixth installment of Insidious franchise which is Insidious: Out of the Further yesterday (Sep. 02 2026). This is the first time I watched any of the franchise of Insidious. Insidious: Out of the Further is an American supernatural horror film and it is written and directed by Jacob Chase. Unfortunately, I found the movie a little boring and there are some scenes that didn't scared me at all. I'm a horror movie enthusiast and I feel something lacking with this film. However, the lead actress Amelia Eve was able to deliver a solid performance as  Gemma, the protagonist. I just cannot explained after I went outside the theatre, I felt dissatisfied for what I had watched. For me the best horror film I've watched this year so far is Evil Dead Burn, it really scared me to the bones. 

Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026 Film)

After tropical Storm "Maymay" unleashed its fury in some parts of the country especially Northern Luzon and parts of CALABARZON (August 6-7 2026), I was able to watched Spider-Man: Brand New Day on its second week run in Philippine theatres. 

Finally, our friendly neighborhood Peter Parker aka Spider-Man: Brand New Day has arrived. As expected, I enjoyed watching the latest movie of my favorite superhero. I gave the film 4 out of 5 stars. Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man gave a soulful, solid, and more grounded performance. It is so far the best and more mature of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Spider-Man films. The movie is a record breaker in the box office, it earned a whooping $1 billion in just 12 days worldwide and still showing in many parts of the world as of this writing. If you have free time with your kids and family, bring them to watch the movie and I'm pretty much sure they will enjoy it.

The Odyssey (2026 Film)

 "The Odyssey" is a visually striking epic movie that is worth watching for. It's a 2 hours and 52 minutes movie adaptation of Homer's ancient Greek epic poem the Odyssey. The movie stars an ensemble cast including Matt Damon (who played Odysseus), Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, and Lupita Nyong'o. After watching the movie, I considered it as one of the best film of 2026 so far. Kudos to Matt Damon for a strong performance and director Christopher Nolan for his brilliant directing.

Feast Day of Saint James the Greater

Today, Saint James the Greater Parish Church and Barangay Buhay na Tubig at Imus City, celebrated the Feast day of Saint James the Greater through "karakol", a traditional Filipino religious dance procession. Churchgoers and Catholic devotees dance through the streets of Barangay Buhay na Tubig. This "karakol" is to honor the patron saint of the said Barangay.

Evil Dead Burn (2026 Film)

If you are a film buff who likes horror films, "Evil Dead Burn" is a must to see. You will not get disappointed to watch the movie because of it's brutal and bloody scenes, excessive violence and gore. Evil Dead Burn is the sixth installment in the Evil Dead series and it is the sequel of Evil Dead Rise (2023). It is directed by Sebastian Vanicek and produced by Rob Tapert and Sam Raimi, the series creator of Evil Dead. The film cast includes Souhella Yacoub, Tandi Wright, Hunter Doohan, Luciano Buchanan, Erroll Shand, and Maude Davey. The story of Evil Dead Burn is about a distress woman (Alice) who seeks comfort with her in-laws at an isolated house following the death of her husband. The get together was turned into a family assembly from hell as her in-laws transpose into a demon-possessed Deadites. 

Actually I enjoyed watching the movie because of it's brutal and bloody scenes. Every scenes are properly executed by the director and all actors convincingly performed their roles. I recommend this movie for you to watch and you need to bring enough courage to see those bloody scenes and violence. In the Philippines, the movie is rated R-18 which means it is intended mainly for adults 18 years old and older due to mature contents such as violence, adult themes, and nudity. 

Supergirl (2026 Film)

Supergirl is a good movie, but also a bad movie at the same time. This is the first movie I had watched for the month of July 2026. It is a good movie because of it's lead actress Milly Alcock who portrayed Supergirl gave an excellent performance as a beer drinking, unhappy, and a nomad traveling girl in outer space. Her portrayal as Kara Zor-El successfully captured the immensed emotional and physical response to a distressing life. It is a good movie because of it's visually stunning cosmic location, lots of aliens and strange creatures. On the other side of the fence, it is a bad movie because of its average script and visually dark tone movie. Most of the scenes are shot so darkly that you cannot recognize the characters of the film. I found it disappointing that I had to endure watching this movie in the dark. According to Variety, the movie only grossed around $38 million in its opening weekend in the United States against a reported $170-$186 million production budget. 

Colony (2026 Film)

Colony, a South Korean zombie thriller movie is the first film I've watched this month of June 2026. The movie was directed by Yeon Sang-ho, he is also the director of the massive box office hit "Train to Busan".  I enjoyed watching the movie because of it's action, horror,  and zombie genre. The movie is about a professor named Se Jeong attended a biotech conference only to find out and witness it spiral into a tragedy when a quickly mutating virus is released. As the outbreak circulates and infected begin to transform, the authorities lockdown the whole building trapping everyone inside. A group of isolated survivors including Professor Se Jeong were trapped inside and struggles to confront the infected. 

Deep Water

I watched another survival-thriller movie yesterday and found it worth watching. The movie Deep Water stars Aaron Eckhart, Ben Kingsley, and Angus Sampson. It is directed by Renny Harlin. The plot of the movie is about a diverse group of passengers flying from Los Angeles to Shanghai whose airplane goes down in an open ocean with an aggresive sharks circling the area. The survivors need to work together to escape the sinking aircraft and overcome the sharks drawn to the wreckage.
