After sweeping Metro Manila Film Festival awards with 7 wins, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actress, “Deleter”, Mikhail Red's first collaboration with Viva, went on to become one of the highest grossing films during the run of the festival.

Lyra works for an online content moderation company, where employees, known as deleters, deal with graphic content before it reaches online platforms, usually in an effort to prevent extreme sex and violence from getting to the screens of users. It seems, however, that the company is shady on a number of levels, as we watch employees staying in a bunkhouse, and Lyra receiving “calming pills” from her boss Simon, which justify how unfazed she is by the content she has to watch everyday. Things take a turn for the much worse when Eileen, a colleague of hers commits suicide, which gradually starts bringing up both Lyra's traumatic past and the actual nature of Simon,...

Actor-singer-influencer Nadine Lustre, Louise delos Reyes and film and TV actor Mccoy Deleon are the leads in rising star Philippines director Mikhail Red’s “Deleter.”

A first teaser has been released for the film that straddles the techno-horror and psychological thriller genres.

Based on a script by Mikhail and Nikolas Red, the film follows Lyra, who works shifts at a shadowy online content moderation office where employees, known as deleters, are tasked with the process of filtering graphic uploads from reaching social media platforms. The responsibility of censorship proves bearable for Lyra, whom her co-workers, as well as her boss Simon, observe as a cold person unfazed by the disturbing imagery she sees on a daily basis. What they do not know is that Lyra hides a deep trauma. Lyra’s attempt to erase and forget her past has forced her to don an apathetic face to the horrors of the world.

Rising-star Philippines director Mikhail Red is poised to begin shooting of “Deleter,” a film that straddles the techno-horror and psychological thriller genres.

The story involves an online content moderator who deletes a suicide video made by her co-worker. But the otherwise desensitized woman cannot escape from either her own troubled past or from a mysterious vengeful presence.

The film is scripted by Red and younger brother Nikolas Red. It is set to star actor-singer-influencer Nadine Lustre, Louise delos Reyes and film and TV actor Mccoy Deleon.

Production is by Viva Films, an established production house which has credits including Erik Matti’s action thriller “Buy Bust.” Location shooting will run through August and September and a completed version is intended to be completed by the end of the year ahead of a launch at key festivals.

Red’s most recent completed film “Arisaka” launched at festivals late last year and...

The Road opened in cities across the country today as part of its limited theatrical release and is now available on a variety of on-demand services. During a recent talk with director Yam Laranas, I learned about the evolution of this film from a single story idea, scaring child actors, and his next project:

When did you first start working on The Road and what was your inspiration for the story?

Yam Laranas: I started in 2005 and was dabbling with the idea of creating a claustrophobic film that wasn’t happening in a haunted house. So I thought about how scary it is to be lost on a dark road, not knowing where to go. I remember being lost on a dark road during a road trip and you feel trapped.

What changed since your original idea from 2005?

Yam Laranas: When I started writing, I only wrote about...
