Filipino filmmaker Yam Laranas’ “The Road,” which had its North American premiere last week, received a favorable review in The New York Times. According to critic Jeannette Catsoulis, the GMA 7-produced flick is a “powerfully atmospheric blend of ghostly encounters, horrific situations and missing-persons mysteries.” The reviewer also noted that the film is “enormously assured … [and] sucks you in like quicksand.” The review concluded: “Though not without flaws … this grisly tale earns its scares the old-fashioned way: By making our spines crawl instead of our stomachs churn.” Bayani San Diego Jr.
