T2, Must-see Summer Movie

Much-awaited by horror movie fans is the Star Cinema’s latest offering “T2,” dubbed the official “must-see” summer movie of 2009, and which opens today, Black Saturday, in over 100 theaters nationwide. Why show it on Black Saturday? Because it is recalled that in the past, all of Star Cinema movies shown on Black Saturday have all been box-office hits. And this is also expected of “T2,” to be another huge success for Star Cinema.

“T2” stars Diamond Star Maricel Soriano who reunites with box-office director Chito Roño who was responsible for the two previous Star Cinema horror blockbusters “Feng Shui” (starring Kris Aquino) and “Sukob” (starring Kris Aquino and Claudine Barretto).

The trailer alone of “T2” (from which “psst…” has become the official scary byword) has excited countless televiewers who certainly wouldn’t miss watching the horror flick on the big screen, if only to see what stuff this movie is made of. With engkantos taken to the fore in this film, moviegoers will definitely witness a world never before seen in a movie.

With “T2,” the bankable triumvirate Star Cinema, Chito Roño and Maricel Soriano promise to take moviegoers on the edge of their seats. The rigorous shooting schedules and grueling special effects processes have produced a film that is expected to be long remembered as one of the best horror films this decade.

Because this is not just a horror movie, they say. It is a film that infuses drama and heart to the story, elements that will be much appreciated by Kapamilya audiences here and all over the world.

By the way, “T2” boasts of an impressive cast, meticulously assembled for this project: new child wonder Mika dela Cruz, who Maricel and Direk Chito have been praising to high heavens for being so talented and promising; Derek Ramsay who plays Maricel’s husband; Eric Fructuoso who plays her driver, comebacking Camille Prats, K Brosas in her first serious film, and Tetchie Agbayani who returns to mainstream cinema via “T2.”

“T2’s” international screening schedule is as follows: April 17-23, at the Micronesia Mall in Guam; UA Stonestown Twin in San Francisco; Regal Village Square Stadium in Las Vegas; Parkway Plaza Stadium Cinema in Seattle; Cerritos Stadium Cinema in Los Angeles; and UA Horton Plaza in San Deigo; April 30-May 2 at Al Ghurair in Dubai and Grand Megamall in Sharjah; May 7-9 at the Grand Al Mariah in Abu Dhabi; May 8-14 at Coliseum Scarborough in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada; and Empire Studio 10 in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada; May 14-16, at Grand Cine Center in Qatar and Seed Cineplex in Bahrain.

“T2” has been rated B by the Cinema Evaluation Board.
