⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
Extra sleazy Filipino horror film fixates on sex until its violent and downbeat climax. Jake, a recovering drug addict and screenwriter, journeys with his filmmaking friends for some location scouting. Looking to rest after a long day of traveling, the group rent an old house from a grieving father who recently lost his daughter to a murderous trio of rape-happy tourists. The dead girl’s angry and horny ghost begins to slowly possess the film crew leading to a bit of sex and ghostly shenanigans. The father knows what is going on and attempts to quell his daughter’s path of vengeance, especially on the innocent youngsters renting his house. On top of possessing, the spirit can also resurrect her own body (which her Dad keeps propped up in her locked bedroom) and uses it to seduce the mentally fragile Jake. This leads to a MacGruber-like sex scene where Jake’s sneaky friends film him getting down with the lovely young lady but when they play it back it’s just footage of the bare-ass young man humping empty space. Thoroughly bizarre from its schizophrenic beginning to its “it was all a dream... or was it?!?” ending, Alapaap is well worth the hunt. There may be better films where a woman burns half her face off with a hairdryer but I doubt those films also contain a dog molesting and then murdering a young woman.
