Mother Lily Monteverde Says The Budget Of One Episode Alone Of 'Shake Rattle & Roll 15' Already Soars To P60 Million

REGAL ENTERTAINMENT’s “Shake Rattle and Roll 15” is the first entry in the coming Metro-Manila Filmfest to have a trailer now being shown in theatres. It was shown when we watched “Dementia” in Trinoma. The trilogy is headed by stars from the top two networks.

The first episode, “Ahas”, stars JC De Vera and Erich Gonzales. The second episode,”Ulam”, stars Dennis Trillo and Carla Abellana, directed by Jerrold Tarog who has helmed Carla before in a previous “Shake” movie. The last episode is “Flight 666”, a star-studded story set on an airplane starring Lovi Poe, Matteo Guidicelli, John Lapus, Daniel Matsunaga, Kuya Kim Atienza, Baron Geisler, Kiray Celis and Nathalie Hart, directed by Perci Intalan.
We heard Mother Lily was shocked when she found out that the budget for “Flight 666” alone already amounts to millions of pesos. “We have to rent a real aircraft as the setting of the story at ang mahal-mahal pala nito,” she says. “Then for the use of the aircon inside the airplane, iba pa ang bayad. Ang dami pang ibang gastos kasi gagamitan ng CGI yung creature na pumapatay ng passengers inside the plane. Nakakaloka! It’s so expensive. For this episode alone, P60 million na ang budget. E, may two other episodes pa. Naiisip ko na lang, Christmas naman ang showing nito so it’s our present to the moviegoers who’ve been supporting the ‘Shake Rattle & Roll’ series all these years.”
