646f9e108c A series of murders takes place in the Metropolis in a span of three weeks, the latest of which happens on the night Junior, a taxi driver, makes love to a prostitute. After establishing a pattern from the killings, Inspector Noble, the police investigator, will theorize that only one person, a serial or thrill killer, maybe responsible for all of the murders. Junior is aware of the killings but it doesn't seem to bother him, unlike most ordinary people who have heard of the news about a serial killer roaming the city. Together with Trixie's friend Toti, Junior and Trixie head to the countryside where Trixie's family live. Junior gets to meet Martha, Trixie's weird mother, a tough lady with a shotgun always on her side. Junior also gets to know Max, Trixie's weird brother, a war-scarred former Marine soldier who's got traces of insanity. Martha's rejection of Junior is evident from the start. Martha wants Trixie to end the relationship, and immediately tell Junior that he is not welcome in the family. At this time, a mysterious man riding in an old van is heading towards Trixie's house. The bulky, ominous looking man with murderous eyes eventually reaches the house, and once inside, takes down Trixie's family one by one. First to fall is Max's wife, then the house helper, Max, and finally Martha. The man takes the shocked and hysterical Trixie alive. Junior on the other hand, manages to hide and elude the man. Meanwhile, Inspector Noble finally identifies the serial killer after getting a lead from the remains of a murdered woman. He is Damian Garote, an officer of Metrocom during Martial Law. He was considered to be the most brutal and ruthless police officer during his time. After he retired from the service, no one knew where he went. Junior eventually gets in the way of Damian, and tries to stop the man from getting away with Trixie. The two men get to see each other eye to eye after they got out of the van which rammed to a tree. The two will recognize each other easily. But in the end, nothing is what it seems.
I was in the public library and it led me to this particular DVD called "Ligalig".It was a multi-awarded film in the Philippines.I decided to borrow it to see whether it was really a good film.After viewing it,there is only one thing I could say about it. To put it in words,"Ligalig is definitely High Tension". Not in the sense that the movie is filled with suspense and tension but rather due to the fact that it was an imitation of the French film,"Haute Tension" which is also known"High Tension",for majority of the movie.<br/><br/>The story involves a taxi driver named Junior.He is taking her girlfriend Trixie on his taxi together with their fellow friend.We have Junior and Trixiethe main characters instead of having Marie and Alex.A mysterious killer appears named Damian,who slashes people's head.We have Damian riding an old car instead of having an unknown killer riding a truck.When Junior visits Trixie's family,a number of murders take place.Damian kills all member of Trixie's family just like the killer murders all members of Alex's family. As the story progresses,the viewers will be surprised to see Junior is seen performing the killings and has Trixie in captive justthe viewers were surprised when Marie is seen murdering people and has Alex in captive.Then the conclusion has Junior professing his love of Trixie justMarie is towards Alex.The final scene is somewhat different with Junior getting killed when Trixie tries to escape while Marie locked up in a psychiatric hospital with Alex looking on a window.<br/><br/>This Filipino moviea complete imitation of the French movieI have previously stated.Most of the scenes from the latter was added to that former.Unfortunately,it does not match the suspense filled French version.What's worse,the viewer is exposed to poorly handled special effects.Except for the great performance of Cesar Montano,there is nothing really positive that could be said in it except possibly the guts and courage that the filmmakers have in producing another version of the suspense-filled movie that many people are still talking,discussing and debating about until now.
Cesar Montano stars,wrote the screenplay and directed this film entitled "Ligalig" which happens to be a French rip off of the movie made by Alexandre Aja and starred by Cecile de France and Maiwenn known"High Tension".<br/><br/>No question that this Filipino film totally imitated the French slasher flick from beginning to end.It took everything from its story,the characters,the murders,the twist of having the main character - Junior - who is suffering from double personality and the conclusion.<br/><br/>Too bad that it was a poor imitationsome elements that were done were out of place suchthe masturbation scene,the shower scene,the gun toting mother and brother,the prostitutes involved and many others.As for the additional elements suchthe melodramatic and violent characters,they looked simply out of placewell and does not contribute to the overall story.What's worse,there are more questions that needed to be answered at the end of the movieplot holes can be detected by intelligent viewers.Added to that,the use of special effects too were clumsily done and excessive.They could be tiresomethe movie progresses.One might even laugh at their use in some of the scenes.<br/><br/>In summary,this was a bad movie.I know that the Philippines can produced better films than this.
