Our guest is also the co-chair of Gumamela Pictures.

Friends, let's give it up for

a fourth generation filmmaker of the Anderson family.

I heard you are in custody of a very special film.

That's the one they say vanished after the war, right?

Of all the films to make, he decided on making horror.

I just need to ask.

Your grandfather was involved in a case

regarding Stella Estuar.

And then days after, she committed suicide.

You really are an Anderson!

- It's great-great-granddaughter. - The H.N. Anderson, right?

Your dad is also a production designer, right?

Yeah.

Cyril Anderson?

He's focusing on doing commercials,

and not much on film work.

Can we do this some other time?

I need to finish this.

Right. Sorry, sorry.

- Thank you. - Sorry.

Move it eight frames. Let's try that.

Just a little bit.

Let's just try it out. I'm not really sure.

Cut! That's it.

That's good, Cy. Looks great!

But try adjusting a bit more, maybe...

Just the tail of the clip.

Yes, move it just a bit more.

Maybe we should adjust...

Let's adjust the vibrance.

Because...

If you look at her skin tone,

it needs to pop out more.

Looks good, right? I told you.

What was that?

What's that?

Hold on, sir.

This really happens.

Cy, please clean it up.

Yes, sir.

What happened, Cy?

Sorry, sir.

Did you clean up the timeline?

Which one?

Project Silky, please fix it.

Sir Bobby was very stressed earlier.

I mean, the Holy Week is approaching.

If you don't get it done before then,

you'd have to come in during the break. Are you all right?

Yeah.

- Yeah. - We'll meet the deadline?

Of course.

Jeff just messed up earlier.

Don't blame the kid.

Aren't you his supervisor?

Aren't you keeping an eye on him?

He lacks experience.

What is he even doing here?

Which big shot uncle pulled strings for you to hire him?

Don't get me started on nepotism, Cy. We all know you're only here because...

Just let him do this project.

You keep on requesting for an assistant,

but you won't give him a chance.

Why not get Rea again?

I'll give him this project.

If Jeff screws up again,

I'll find a replacement myself.

Fine, sounds good to me.

Project Silky, tomorrow. Okay?

I won't ask Sir Bobby to review here.

Do remote viewing instead.

There. And line!

Here.

It's so hot here.

- Blowers, please. - Okay, coming.

Let's retouch our talent while we're doing playback.

And three, two, one...

Action! Eyes on the camera.

There...

Boo!

Why are you sleeping, Cyril?

You have so much work to do.

I'm not sleeping, boss.

I'm pressing buttons, see?

It's important for the company.

Can't I visit?

Seriously, what are you doing here?

Nothing. I just wanted to check on you.

We thought you'd take a leave.

I'm sure Ma'am Jen will understand. I mean...

Grandpa just died, right?

I need more internship hours.

That's why I'm here.

I think they require more of me

because they know I'm an Anderson.

There.

Split the workload with Jeff.

Really?

Thank you, Dad, you really are a lifesaver.

Those are boxes from Grandpa Edd.

That has your name on it. Mom almost threw it out.

Good thing I was able to bring those here.

Isn't that...

35mm?

Hold on.

Is that...

the film Grandpa was trying to restore before he died?

But it has your name on it. "For Cyril," it says.

Isn't that the first horror film in the Philippines?

- Don't you want to see it? - He never finished assembling it.

I'm not even sure if he finished restoring it.

Let's finish the commercial.

- I can upload this to my channel. - Rea.

If you don't want it, I'll take it.

Are you on your way home?

Not yet, I'll probably stay the night here at the post house.

I'll just help Dad out.

How are things over there?

How's your dad doing with everything that happened?

Did you notice if he's drinking?

Ma, he's sober.

It's been ages.

He's just focused on work.

But it would be nice if he could chip in for your tuition again.

He keeps telling me he has no projects lately.

Come on, Ma, you know how post life is.

He just doesn't get paid on time.

And yet, you still want to pursue film.

I'm telling you, Rea.

You have to reconsider.

Ma, we've talked about this. Why bring it up now?

Seriously?

I just feel like I neglect you sometimes.

And I appreciate that you get to bond with your dad, but...

I'm just keeping him company.

But please take care of yourself, okay?

And keep an eye on your dad.

Why are you still here, Rod? It's almost Holy Week.

It's because of your dad, ma'am.

Looks like he'll be here until morning.

Ma'am Jen left him a ton of work. Poor thing.

That's why I'm here to help.

Okay, ma'am.

Ma'am!

You forgot to log in!

Are you okay?

Jeff.

You want some? To take the edge off.

Looks like you need it.

It's fine, I've quit for some time now.

You better stop, too.

Really, an editor who doesn't smoke?

Okay.

You look annoyed with your dad.

I just don't want drama.

We're good, right?

What?

It's fine, don't worry about it.

Dad has been saying that

he needs an assistant that's...

not his kid.

And they said you're doing great!

That you have so much potential.

Really?

Not really.

I'm just joking.

Dad?

We'll just get the hard drives.

We'll use the other room to sync.

Rea, can you ask Rod where he kept the keys for the studio?

Why?

I think the old moviola is in there.

Really?

You handle this.

We'll be working here.

Rea!

In here.

Yeah.

Are all these posters of Grandpa's films?

Can I use them for my thesis?

- No! - What?

- Why not? - I already told you.

- Dad! - No.

This looks like a museum!

Yup.

Dad, can I vlog this?

My subscribers are mostly horror fans. They'll love this shit.

You want to get your hours in right? Do that later.

What?

How did you know this was here?

Because from what I know, the studio was upgraded to Steenbeck that time.

Do you know how to use this, Dad?

- Got it? - Yes.

- All set? - Yeah.

Go on.

Turn it. There you go.

Hold this so it doesn't flap around.

Rea, can you turn on the light? That one.

Grandpa taught you?

Do you want me to teach you?

Dad, how come after all these years,

that film's still not done?

Okay, when your grandma...

So your grandma, when...

I was very young then so I can't totally remember,

I just need you to promise me that we will finish this together.

For sure, Dad.

Dad, do you need help?

I just have to get something.

And then the tape.

- I'll have to... - This one, yeah.

- And then? - Then, the tape.

Their acting is so exaggerated!

Yeah.

Let's take a break.

Are you hungry? I can order food.

Actually, grab your phone and take a video...

just pick one of the clips, and then...

- Why? - I'll send it to Uncle Ruel.

Why don't we just take a video of the whole film?

- It's easier to compile on the computer. - No, we're going to do this manually.

- You're making things harder for yourself. - Rea! Just do as I say.

Damn it.

It's all about timing.

Do you know the Kuleshov effect? That's all it is.

What's that?

First, a man screaming.

Second, a gun that went off.

Third, a man running.

What do you think happened?

The man was shot at so he ran?

Could be.

But what if...

we put the image of the gun first.

Then the man running.

Then the man screaming.

It's a different story, right?

Okay.

That's smart.

Mind you, this isn't even my best film yet.

But seriously.

It seems like film making comes naturally to you.

Not really.

It's like I'm left with no choice.

For one, my dad is an editor.

My grandfather is, too.

At least you know what you want to do.

I mean, I am not even sure...

if I really want this.

Much like my dad.

He's also not sure.

Because of your grandfather?

He wanted to outdo my grandfather for so long.

So when Grandpa passed away,

He can't outrun his fears anymore.

He has no choice.

And it robbed him of confidence.

How can he be proud of others?

He might not say it but...

I know he's proud of you.

I hope so.

Rea...

You've gone viral again.

How are you guys doing downstairs?

Will your dad be able to work on the commercial already?

We have a deadline.

I'll remind him later.

Dad?

Are you done? I need you.

Yeah.

I'll go ahead.

Are you done syncing the files?

Almost done, chief.

Did we unbox everything?

It's incomplete.

- Incomplete? - It's missing.

Wasn't Grandpa also looking for a missing clip?

I thought he was able to find it but...

There's another one there. Just...

Rea.

What's taking you so long? I've been waiting.

Dad.

Isn't that the same creature in the silent film?

What is that doing here?

That film has been around for ages.

Shouldn't that be destroyed by now?

What's it doing here though? I've never seen this before.

Who put that here?

Is that it?

Okay, good. Let's go.

Make sure that that's the right frame.

Mess up once, and you ruin everything.

- I'll just turn this on? - Go.

I know she has talked to me about it. I really want to help.

- No, really... - It's fine.

- What's this? - Jeff.

Sir, I'm sorry. But I'm getting worried.

This is not what Ms. Jen told us to do.

She's following up already.

Jeff.

Jeff. It's a side project, okay?

If you have a problem with Jen, I'll talk to her.

I can ask for an extension on the deadline.

Right? No problem. If you're not going to help,

- just leave. - Sir.

Okay, what? Go on, you have my attention. What's the problem?

Sir, sorry but I need to report this to Ms. Jen.

Go ahead and try, you bastard!

Just try.

Good luck finding another job somewhere else. Do it.

- Dad. - Asshole!

Dad, that's enough. He's just doing his job.

He's done nothing but cause trouble.

We're all trying to work.

Okay.

We're so close to finishing this film. It's so...

It's almost done, and with or without that missing scene,

Rea.

This is my first time watching a silent film like this.

Ready?

The intensity, the power? That's the real deal!

We need that missing scene.

Uncle Ruel!

Have you been waiting long?

I'm sorry.

Where's the film?

- Follow me. - This way, sir.

Here, Uncle. Come in.

Take a seat here.

Actually, to tell you the truth, I didn't expect Dad to send me this.

Are you done editing it?

Yeah.

Almost, but I think...

It's missing something. It's incomplete.

In fact, do you have any idea where Dad hides his reels?

Because I'm not sure if the box he sent was...

- Please! What are you... - Stop this, Cy!

Just... What are you doing?

That night I tried to stop him.

Dad!

You need to burn it.

Where's the studio?

Uncle...

Stay here.

- Dad... - I said stay here!

The Manananggal costume, have you seen it?

Where did it go?

So?

- Have you found it? - I swear it was right here.

Uncle?

Cy!

Cy?

It might be the breaker. This always happens.

Don't worry, Uncle.

Cy?

Cy!

Cy?

- He ruined me... - Stella?

Do you still plan to self-harm?

I curse his bloodline!

- Stella... - I curse them all!

For everything that he did to me!

I will hunt them down...

one by one!

Stella! Calm down.

- They cannot escape me. - Stella!

Hold her down.

- You can't stop me! - We need help here!

You will pay!

Jeff.

Where's Cyril?

I'm done syncing.

Looks like you're not yet done with your side project.

Yes, not yet.

I'm sorry but we really need to finish the commercial.

What are you doing?

I'm sorry, Rea.

Dad will be furious!

Please tell Cy to finish our work first.

Don't do this, I'll do it...

I'll finish the commercial. I will make sure it's done!

Jeff, please!

Get these back once the commercial's done. Sorry.

Jeff!

Fuck.

Fuck.

Uncle.

Uncle?

Rea!

Dad?

Where's...

Where's Ruel?

The one there.

Dad, Jeff took them.

He said we should finish the commercial first and then

he'll give back the reels once we're done with editing.

We're almost done, Rea! Why would you do that?

He took them. I'm sorry. I tried everything!

Fuck!

- Dad, I'm sorry. - It's okay.

I got this. I'll handle it. Just...

Rea?

Ma?

Rea, what happened?

Are you all right?

Ma, it's... it's Dad.

Why?

Did he hurt you?

I knew it.

I told you not to go there anymore.

I should have brought you home.

Stay there.

Don't go near your dad.

I'll be there.

Rea.

Hello? Rea, can you hear me?

Rea!

Cy.

Rod...

I'll go home for now. Looks like Dad will be here until tomorrow.

Rod...

Rea?

Rea?

Rea?

Rea?

Rea?

Ma!

I'm here. It's okay. I got you.

It's okay, baby. I know.

I know.

Dad?

It's me.

Dad, Ma's dead.

Dad!

Our editor's awake now.

My God, it's so beautiful.

The very first Filipino horror film...

Rea?

What else can we do to make this film better?

Dad...

Dad, I don't know.

Dad, I don't know.

- You don't know. - I don't know anymore.

Screw that answer!

We spend thousands each year for that school tuition,

and that's all you have to say?

Whatever you need, I hand it to you.

When you have a problem, I fix it for you.

Even your internship hours

become my concern.

Rea?

So. This is what we call the Kuleshov effect.

You should know this by now, right?

What's the correct order for this?

Tell me what else we need to do

What should go first,

the kid, the tragedy, or the monster?

The kid, the tragedy, the monster!

Enough!

Stop!

Enough.

Dad, can I vlog this?

All my subscribers are horror fans, they'll love this shit.

You wanted to work right? Can you help me out instead?

Do it later.

How did you know this was in here?

He donated this to the studio before he left which up to now I don't...

Something fell. That was scary.

I was shocked.
