3 days of darkness movie



Filmless Films presents
THREE DAYS OF DARKNESS
This is not a film by Khavn

Starring Katya Santos, Gwen Garci
Introducing Precious Adona & Bugz Daigo

WHEN: December 12 (Wednesday) to December 24, 2007
WHERE: Robinson’s Galleria, Ermita, and Bacolod

TRAILER: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-gqRZ1y1WU

SYNOPSIS
Kimberly (Katya Santos), Michiko (Gwen Garci), and
Isabel (Precious Adona) are trapped inside their house
when the apocalyptic prophecy happens. Khavn draws on
the Book of Revelation for one of the most frightening
phenomenon prophesied to happen. Three girls are
trapped in their home as the Three Days of Darkness
descend on the Earth and they must cope and try to
fend off the demons that have come to take them. A
chilling vision of God's Wrath or of people imposing
God's Wrath on one another, the film frightens with
its questions as much as it does with its sounds and
visuals.

Hi All,

We would like to inform you that the TriNoma Food Tour for Bloggers is postponed to January 9, 2008 (Wednesday), same time and place instead of the original schedule on December 13, 2007 to allow for the addition of more food merchants who have either just set up shop or still in process of setting up. In short, this means more food for us! J

You may check out the Google spreadsheet file for the updated list of participants.

We are truly sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused you. Rest assured the slight delay will be well worth the wait. We continue to look forward to seeing you (and eating with) you on the rescheduled date. J

Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us anytime.

2. program starts
3. iza singing
4. ken enters
5. awarding
6. interview with the director of Batanes movie
7. Meet up with Ken
8. Ken leaves

its great to hear from Ken saying that Batanes is the last paradise on Earth, and he said that he will be going back there again and we Pinoys should take a chance to see the beauty of the place, but we should never do anything to it or take anything from the place and leave the beauty as it is.
