My notes on SHAKE RATTLE & ROLL XV
1. Any 80's kid would remember that urban legend about Robina Gokongwei's twin snake brother stalking the women's dressing room of Robinson's Galleria. Even my mother feared for her life and avoided that mall regardless if a) she couldn't afford to buy anything there (it used to be a really upscale mall), and b) she was a mother of three and not exactly snake man virgin material. Still, it was an effective ploy before the dawn of social media scams. With that said, the Ahas episode had a very interesting concept that was just poorly-executed.

2. I loved how they made Alice Dixson the mother of the snake twins considering that she was the most popular victim of that Robinson's story.
3. Malls seem like the perfect setting for a horror movie (see: Dawn of the Dead). I wished they fully utilized the area (and added more people trapped inside perhaps?). It just wasn't as exciting seeing the mall guard and janitor get killed.
4. The special effects in this episode were just bad and proved to be a big distraction from the apparent threats onscreen. People simply laughed at the virtual snake girl that seemed to jump and not slither in every scene.
5. John Lapus always gets the most laughs in these SRR episodes. And he's always the only person that would fight back regardless if it was a snake or a possessed wedding dress.
6. One scene was taken straight out of Sharknado. All it needed was a chainsaw.
7. The Ulam episode was the most technically polished among the three. It would have been great if it focused on the supernatural instead of The Hills Have Eyes territory, though.
8. Some of the elements here closely resembled Feng Shui. We need to put a stop on this Chinese Horoscope fascination. Oh wait, 2015 is the Year of the Sheep. That's my animal sign! I wonder if I'll be lucky next year.
9. In one scene, Carla Abellana unknowingly ate noodles sprinkled with lizards. Full disclosure: I have eaten butiki as part of my mom's belief that it can cure asthma. Today, I still rely heavily on my inhaler.
10. Can we have more movies with Chanda Romero please?
11. The Flight 666 episode was the weakest and most disposable one with a tiyanak causing havoc on a plane. All it needed was Samuel L. Jackson screaming, "Get this motherfucking tiyanak off my motherfucking plane!!"
12. Lovi Poe to one passenger: "Have a sit." *groan*
13. Kuya Kim was included in the cast since we all needed to know the history and etymology of things. Get this motherfucking Wikipedia off my motherfucking plane!!
