SHE IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER...

Halloween is not too far ahead but yesterday, I was already into the spirit. I never really liked horror movies but I would watch them if I'm with friends... definitely, never alone.

I joined my photographer friends in their recent out-of-town fun shoot at Port St. Michel, Batangas, Philippines (thanks to Allan Tom) to help direct and coordinate photography themes and concepts aside from being the stylist for the models. At the end of the day, as photographer Vincent Garrucho sets up his camera and stuff, I decided to play the role. Donning a white dress, went on barefoot and stood right in front of Vincent... beckoning him to take a photo of me as Sadako. Creepy...

Throughout my experience with horror movies, I totally bow down to the Queen of Japanese Horror... Sadako. Watching "The Ring" scared out the wits of most of us. Tried to give a little twist to Vincent's work, I jumped straight for him twice as if Sadako was elevated. Creepy...

I think that Sadako is the best horror villain we are afraid of the most and we actually quite like the most. We just can’t get enough of her, it seems thus; explaining the successful sequels.

Who would ever forget Sadako? My photos as her will never give justice to how the movies actually showed her but it is my pride and glory to have done the role even for just 2 good shots.

Thank you Vincent Garrucho for the wonderful photos. The real Sadako is for sure, proud.
