Host Ogie Alcasid is very optimistic that this partnership between Viva and TV5 will be very fruitful. “Kasi dati, kulang sa artista ang TV5,” he says. “Ngayon, dala ni Boss Vic ang stars nila sa Viva stable kaya dumami ang mga artista ng TV5.”
The movie “Lumayo Ka Nga sa Akin” is a trilogy of comic stories based on the best-selling book of Bob Ong. Each story is a spoof of a different movie genre. The first episode is an action-comedy, “Bala sa Bala, Kamao sa Kamao, Satsat sa Satsat” starring Benjie Paras as the survivor of a massacre that happened during his own church wedding, co-starring with Candy Pangilinan, directed by Mark Meily.
The second episode is a horror-comedy, “Shake, Shaker, Shakest” (obviously a parody of the “Shake Rattle & Roll” franchise), starring Maricel Soriano and Herbert Bautista as a couple stranded in a haunted house, directed by Andoy Ranay.
The third episode is a sexy soap opera-comedy, “Asawa ni Marie” (based on the lurid children’s son about “asawa ni Marie, araw-gabi walang panty”), starring the comebacking sexpot Cristine Reyes as a poor farm girl wooed by the owners of the farm where she works. This is directed by Chris Martinez. The movie opens in theatres on January 13.
