Watch Matakot Ka sa Karma For Free

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I was expecting a thriller movie something that will make my hair stand and scream for excitement. Bu what I got was nothing but disappointing movie.A very low quality low standard type of horror, (was it), movie. Personally I can't even categorize this as thriller nor a horror movie, since it makes me laugh every time the supposed to be frightening scene appear on the screen. Every thing is as expected, that's why the phrase "I knew it gonna happen" keeps banging my eardrums in each and every scene.The main thing that makes it more disappointing was the title of the movie itself Matakot ka sa Karma, I don't know probably it's my poor understanding of the movie (but was there anything needed to be understood) or my comprehension that was poor, but where is the Karma in this movie? Until now I'm asking my wife where is the Karma?

For the fourth straight year, writer-director Jose Javier Reyes cooks yet another horror film for the annual Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF). This time, perhaps to facilitate comebacking actress' Gretchen Barretto's participation, it's "Matakot Ka sa Karma," a three-episode movie that revolves around three different women and the malevolent forces behind the articles they possess. Basically, each episode follows a certain formula: the main character receives an antique object despite initial reservations only to have their unwillingness justified by spirits who are apparently living in said objects.The first episode involves Aleli (Barretto), a mother who purchases an old bed for a dubiously low price, and who soon has her son talking to an unseen woman claiming to be his mother. The second episode stars Reyes' muse Rica Peralejo, who in her fourth outing with the director for the same number of consecutive years, is paired off with Derek Ramsey as a young couple who has just been the unlucky owner of a cabinet that houses a vengeful spirit. Finally, for the third episode, Angelica Panganiban is Trina, the hesitant recipient of a seemingly evil necklace found inside her new drawer.If this be the basis for it, maybe Reyes should stick with light-hearted movies since his other MMFF film "Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo" proves to be an enjoyable romp. On the contrary, "Matakot Ka sa Karma" is, simply put, a bad horror movie. It's a generic, insipid walk-through of just about every cliché performed and as with his previous forays into the genre, it's a haphazardly constructed mishmash of scenes that painfully lack a substantial amount of genuine scares. And for the record, the film features some of the worst prosthetics in history.The intended color scheme for each episode, along with some nicely textured flashback scenes, gives the film an interesting variety although these aspects have seen better treatment at some halfway decent films. The score is often an overdone prelude to the impending shock moments. The acting is overall adequate but even that department barely rises from this shoddy product."Matakot Ka sa Karma" is one of the two horror films showing in this year's MMFF (the other being "Shake, Rattle and Roll 8" - also a three-episode movie). But whereas "Shake, Rattle, and Roll 8" has its moments with its tongue firmly planted on its cheek and a few scares, this one looks too arbitrarily grim for its own good. And as the end credits start to roll, the film has so long seemed exhausted. So is the audience.
