Carlo Aquino is also shown masturbating in “Porno”, Alex Medina in “Babagwa” (with his semen shown spurting into the screen of the laptop in front of him) Mimi Juareza in “Quick Change” (after he’s sodomized by Junjun Quintana) and an unknown old man in “Rekorder” does it inside a movie house while watching a sexy film.
There are also boobs exposure galore: Rosanna Roces and Adriana Gomez in “Porno”, Althea Vega in “Amor Y Muerte”, the trannies in “Quick Change” and Eugene Domingo in “Instant Mommy”. Nadine Samonte is shown giving a blowjob to an unknown supporting actor in “Nuwebe”. Angel Aquino uses a vibrator on herself. There are actual penetration scenes in “Porno”, and soft porn sex scenes involving Althea with leading men Marki Stroem and Adrian Sebastian (who have “puwet” galore exposure) in “Amor y Muerte”.
But the biggest box office hit among the entries is not any of these sex movies but the entry of Gov. Vilma Santos, “Ekstra, The Bit Player”. She didn’t show anything but her acting talent and yet Gov. Vi proves she’s still a top box office drawer. At Trinoma, all the ticket sellers say all of “Ekstra’s” screenings this weekend are sold out in advance. Way to go, Ate Vi! This is not surprising as “Ekstra” is also the best movie she has done in years.
The Cinemalaya awards night will be held tonight and our best films are “Transit”, “Purok 7”, “Quick Change” (for New Breed Category), “Ekstra”, “Liars” (for Director’s Showcase).
