It's too bad that Martin Escudero's role in Moron 5 and the Crying Lady had no distinct characteristics from the other guys in the ensemble. Such a talented guy gone to waste. Anyhow, I dug up some nice pictures of his showing not only is he talented, he's also cute! I just hope he can really follow up Zombadings with another sleeper hit!
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!
