Microbudget suspense film of a Filipino-American brought back to his homeland for his father's funeral and dragged through hell to retrieve his kidnapped mother and sister from Islamic terrorists. The thrift affords small comfort to the paying spectator who has to peer through the haze of the video image and get bounced around by the hand-held jiggles and push-button zooms. There is plenty of squalor and "Fuck that shit," but overt violence is limited by the limited wherewithal. Written and directed by Neill Dela Llana and Ian Gamazon, the latter of whom also plays the main (and virtually only) role. (2006) — Duncan Shepherd
