My friend told me that when this movie was shown at the Cinemalaya Festival a month ago, some quarters accused it of being anti-gay or making fun of gay people. Well, I don't want to debate about that since this is actually just a form of entertainment - and in that aspect, Zombadings succeeds very well!
The best discovery in this movie is Martin Escudero! He can really act and he maintains just enough delicacy and sensitivity to his movements especially when he has to be gay and be straight - all at the same time. His ability to segue is just admirable. His performance is one of the best gay portrayals I've seen in a long time!
There are subtitles to this since swardspeak is rampant in the dialogue here. It's great also to see veteran actors like Roderick Paulate, Janice de Belen, John Regala and Daniel Fernando in the mix!
