Ashley plays a man being hunted by soldiers in the opening scenes. Satan (Vic Diaz) saves his life only if he agrees to become a servant.
He does and then the movie moves ahead to 1971 and the Ashley character is married to a beautiful, stunning blonde played by Mary Wilcox. Their marriage is on the rocks because he cannot tell her of his curse and it seems he cannot have sex with her for fear of turning into what he really is, a grotesque monster.
At night he roams the streets killing innocent people and being chased by Det. Lt. Campo played by Eddie Garcia. This is a fun film with very good acting and great Philippine locations.
Vic Diaz was a regular staple in almost every Philippine movie I have ever seen and his presence is always a pleasure in these films. The print from Sinister is ok and I want to thank Greg Luce for carrying this little gem.
It may not be the most scary thing for Halloween night, but it's damn good fun.
