amalanhig 2017 horror movie

Amalanhig is a 2017 pinoy horror movie starring Jerico Estregan as Dan.

In Visayan mythology, Amalanhig is believed to be an evil creature in Hiligaynon speaking groups in Panay Island. A monster with extreme thirst of human blood similar to zombies and vampires, and so with Aswang.

The story started when the Dan's team have a hold of a diary written a long time ago by a victim of Amalanhig. It was stated in that diary that they violated the old traditions that cost their lives.

Due to this, the team headed to San Sebastian to look for Amang Kulas, an old folk that is known to be knowledgable about Amalanhig. Their aim is to investigate further on this incident as also part of their school project. They successfully met him but Amang Kulas warned them not to proceed in going that place because of the evil spirits and the dangers that they might face but due to their eagerness, they still headed to that place up to the old man's residence.

They were allowed to stay camping outside the old man's house. However, due to their excitement, some of the team members entered an old ruins to explore. Out of their curiosity, they discovered something inside where the possessed Amalahig is resting so this caused their lives in danger.

Amang Kulas later disclosed about the Amalanhig who is actually his brother who turned into a monster due to the bad experiences in his life where his wife and daughter were killed. He turned himself into a blood thirsty creature that killed the previous visitors of their place including the one that wrote the diary.

With this, Amang Kulas decided to end the Amalanhig's rage but almost failed to do it. Fortunately, Dan helped him and stabbed the Amalanhig using the dagger that is believed to be the only weapon that could kill the monster.

Dan and his girlfriend were the only ones who survived fighting with the Amalanhig but they didn't know that it's not over yet.
