OUIJA cast members encounter fear

Playing Ouija board is one thing that would be last on my things to try out. But for 5 rising Hollywood stars, they have a close encounter with the real thing as they portray their characters in OUIJA.

Producer Andrew Form shares: “We wanted the characters to feel like they were making real decisions. This is difficult to accomplish in a horror movie when your protagonist is walking up the stairs and you know she shouldn’t be. We wanted the audience to feel just as scared as the actors looked.” This makes your Halloween movie a close to reality that will raise the hell out of the audience.

The cast of OUIJA has closely connected with their characters the moment they read the script and filming this was a great fulfillment for director Stiles White. He says, “I was lucky as a first-time director to have a group of performers that got what this movie was and what we were trying to do with it: a group of friends trying to reach out to a lost friend. It was going to be scary, fun and a thrill ride, but they understood that the friendship layer was the foundation of the story.” Cast includes Olivia Cooke, Daren Kagasoff, Douglas Smith, Ana Coto, and Bianca Santos.

Producer Jason Blum sums: “The best scary movies all hinge on the performances. The actors in this movie are strong and believable. I’m looking forward to seeing those performances come to life before an audience.”

Opening across the Philippines tomorrow, Oct. 29, Ouija is distributed by United International Pictures through Columbia Pictures.

a visit to SKIN CENTRAL

Quite a long time when I last visited the derma clinic and I'm very thankful that I have a gift certificate from one of TV5's events courtesy of Skin Central. It's also convenient that there is a branch near our office in Ortigas so last Friday, I was able to pay them a visit. Who says men can't have their own pampering?

Skin Central has four branches to date. Newest is at Lucky Chinatown in Manila. There are branches at Ayala and Alabang and at St. Francis Square, Ortigas Center, Pasig City where I dropped by. The front desk woman was very polite and honest to tell me that I have to wait an hour to be entertained so I went around at the malls to spend time, and also to eat my dinner.

The only plan was to only have a facial then I decided to have a diamond peel and later on, a back mask service since I have Php 1000 worth of gift certificate. The services are so affordable and so it's not hurting on the budget to have treatment over treatment. So I availed all three services:

Facial with Diamond Peel - Php 700
Back mask - Php 550

The first treatment was to have a back mask and the attendant was also polite and open to explain how the treatment goes. A little tickled since it was my first time to have that treatment. So I took a few shots while I have my back cleaned.

Looking around, the place is themed pink, black and white. It can accommodate 4 people at a time, where there are also private rooms available. Around 10 people can have all their treatments done at the same time.

My facial session was not also that painful since the attendant warned me of the pain. I really have to get used to it since I chose to undergo this treatment. And she has patiently did and extracted all blemishes and took extra precautions on the other parts. I can say that their training includes care and professionalism that's why I like it there.
