Nanay, tatay

What if an innocent childhood rhyme took on a darker meaning?

In Nanay, Tatay, a mysterious couple adopts three girls they found on the streets and soon after, strange occurrences begin in the house. The girls are haunted by what seems to be the ghost of the couple's late daughter.

The film's strong cinematography and intriguing opening build a suspenseful first half, hooking you with its eerie atmosphere. As the story unfolds, it does start to feel a bit predictable and familiar, giving off those "parang napanood ko na ito" moments. Still, the cast's solid performances make it an enjoyable watch. It's my first time watching Andrea del Rosario (played the Nanay), and she's very good here. Elia Ilano is also impressively haunting as the ghost, Xia Vigor is such a cutie, and Jeffrey Hidalgo does a good job as "Tatay," though his naturally kind demeanor softens the strict father vibes a bit.

Overall, Nanay, Tatay is a fun horror movie packed with jump scares, best enjoyed with friends or a crowd.
