New Vivamax film from award-winning director
THE uncensored new film of Ato Bautista titled ‘Ahasss’ is a sexy offering and more. It tackles the issue of woman empowerment.
A young man falls for the beauty of an alluring young woman and helps her be free from her abusive husband.
Jake (Gold Aceron) works as an all-around errand boy at a beach house in a remote town. He works for Mr. Sam Stonehill (Ian Curtis), a retired American military man who marries a young and attractive Filipina, Adelyne (Angela Morena).
Though charming and kind at times, Mr. Stonehill turns to an abusive sadist towards Adelyne when he gets drunk. He even flaunts her to his subordinates and friends, one of whom is Agusto (Jao Mapa), a police officer who guards and protects Mr. Stonehill. Adelyn is forced to dance and show off her body, and if she refuses to do so, she suffers brutal consequences.
One night, as the same horrifying incident happens, Jake aids Adelyne and comforts her. This ignites them to have a connection and share a passionate moment. As Jake and Adelyne continue with their affair, they start to develop feelings for each other, but Adelyne makes Jake realize that they will not be able to love freely as long as Mr. Stonehill is around.
Adelyne and Jake then team up and plot to kill Mr. Stonehill. But as they proceeded with their plan, they did not anticipate the might and intimidation Mr. Stonehill had. Will Adelyne and Jake succeed? Or are they the ones who will not make it alive?
‘Ahasss’ is a film by Ato Bautista, an award-winning director known for creating dark thriller and drama movies. His films ‘Carnivore’ in 2008 and ‘Di Natatapos Ang Gabi (The Night Infinite)’ in 2010 bagged him the Best Director and Lino Brocka Award at Cinemanila International Film Festival.
‘Ahasss’ marks the comeback of ‘The Other Wife’ star, Janelle Tee, on Vivamax. She plays a very important and crucial role to Jake and Adelyne’s love story.
Be ready for the poisonous bite of ‘Ahasss’ streaming exclusively on Vivamax starting October 13, 2023.
September music releases
Ang Pag-ibig by Keanna Mag
New Vicor Records artist Keanna Magracia makes her debut via a lovely cover of the recent Rob Deniel hit “Ang Pag-ibig.” And while the original has its own retro feels, Keanna’s version turns it further on its head and transforms it to a minimalist but sweet- sounding love song with its own appeal.
Mahimbing by Jestur
‘Mahimbing’ is a song about learning on how to be open to receiving help. “From a personal point of view, I was dealing with the worst anxiety that I have dealt with my whole life. I wrote this song as a way of easing myself and as a reminder to not deal with these things alone. I wanted to write a ‘comfort song’s purely just for myself”, he shares. According to Jestur, “Mahimbing” is inspired by songs like “Safe and Sound” by Taylor Swift, Last Hope by Paramore, or Sleep by My Chemical Romance. By REMY UMEREZ
