Review of Nocebo

Nocebo (II) (2022)
5/10
No Cebu?
5 April 2023
The film started great and made me proud being a Cebuano at first ,but when I realized the weak plot after the first 20 minutes (which is obvious revenge) and also realized the movie was a slander to Cebu, I unappreciated the movie especially with its weak scares and sometimes even cringey scenes. I also disliked the inappropriate use of our cultural religious icon. Santo Nino is a sacred cultural heritage not just to Filipinos but especially to Cebuanos. So for it to be used in a vodoo altar is inappropriate. As the movie line says, "Gaba." Basin gabaan intawn mo. But overall my family enjoyed the film so hence the five stars.
