Filipino horror movie titles are usually just a single word.

Pagpag. Sukob. Dalaw. Sigaw. etc. etc.

I swear I love that about horror movies here: you can make ANY word sound scary by putting it on an elaborately designed poster. Let test that shall we?

Suklay. Kape. Bintana. Solmux. Chicharon. Mani. Erpats. Beki.

Ayun! I just came up with Regal Films and Star Cinemas next line-up of films!

Similarly, Filipino romance movie titles are either song lyrics or song titles.

A Very Special Love, No Other Woman, Love Me Again, etc.

Seriously just get an old Bituin Escalate song and look at the lyrics and you've got yourself an entire FRANCHISE of Filipino romance movies!

"Kung Ako Nalang Sana Iyong Minahal."
"Kung Ako Nalang Sana Iyong Minahal 2: Di Ka Na Muling Mag-iisa."
"Kung Ako Nalang Sana Iyong Minahal 3: Di Ka Na Muling Luluha Pa."

GET TO WORK REGAL FILMS!!!
