Review of Shake Rattle & Roll X

Here we have the tenth instalment of the never-ending SHAKE, RATTLE & ROLL series of Filipino horror anthologies. There are three tales collected here and this time around all of them are sub-par, with slow pacing and an overlong running time really spoiling the enjoyment factor. The first is about an attack by an 'aswang' at a rural hospital, but it soon devolves into the usual Hollywood-flavoured zombie shenanigans rather than having local character. The second story has a bunch of teenagers exploring an old school at night and finding a creepy photograph; it's a mood piece without much going on. The third tale is a cheesy fantasy about a forest spirit that reminded me of AVATAR on a miniscule budget.
