The cast of the highly anticipated horror film "KMJS' Gabi ng Lagim The Movie" made a personal appearance in Cebu on November 16, 2025, to promote their upcoming cinematic release. Veteran journalist Jessica Soho joined actors Sanya Lopez and Miguel Tanfelix for the promotional event.
From Television to Big Screen
After 13 successful years on television, the popular annual Halloween special from Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho is making its theatrical debut. Gabi ng Lagim will begin showing in cinemas nationwide starting November 26, 2025, marking a significant milestone for the beloved horror franchise.
According to the production team, the film offers more than just scares. It connects supernatural elements with current community issues, providing valuable lessons for viewers alongside the horror entertainment.
Three Terrifying Stories
The movie features three distinct horror stories directed by prominent Filipino filmmakers. Miguel Tanfelix stars in "Pocong," where he portrays the life of a seaman facing supernatural threats.
Sanya Lopez headlines "Berbalang," which focuses on a creature that feeds on living humans, though legend suggests the berbalang actually seeks the dead. Jillian Ward takes the lead in "Sanib," playing a woman possessed by an evil spirit.
Directorial Powerhouse
The film benefits from the creative vision of three acclaimed Filipino directors: Yam Laranas, Dodo Dayao, and King Mark Baco. Each director brings their unique style to the separate stories, promising a diverse horror experience for audiences.
The Cebu promotion event generated significant excitement among local fans, who had the opportunity to meet the stars in person. The theatrical release represents a new chapter for the KMJS horror special, expanding its reach beyond television viewers to cinema audiences across the Philippines.
