Zombadings- movie review

Zombadings. What comes into your mind when you first read this word? It’s new, I know. When I first encountered this word, I knew right away that it is a combination of ZOMBIE and BADING(gay).



Zombading is a horror/comedy movie directed by Jade Castro. It is a movie about Remington (Mart Escudero) who slowly changes from man into gay after being cursed by a man at the cemetery. Remington used to make fun of the gays in their society calling them ‘bakla’ in a loud voice. As he grows up, the curse starts to work. He would wake up from strange nightmares and would find himself changing, his physical appearance, his language and his feelings. As he changes, another strange happening takes place in their town. There happens to be a mysterious killer who targets gay people.

The role of Remington was really portrayed well by Mart Escudero. He was awesome and terrific in doing his part in this movie, and so as Kerbie Zamora, Roderick Paulate, Lauren Young, Janice De Belen and Eugene Domingo. The movie for me is more of comedy rather than horror. It’s funny to look at how the lead character goes through transformation. I think Zombadings is one of the best films I’ve ever seen, for local of course. It is very creative, smart and courageous.

This movie deals about the world of people who falls under third sex. For me, the movie served as an eye opener for us people who really don’t understand the lives being lived by the third sex generation. It opened my eyes to reality and made me realize what it’s like to be in someone else’ life.
This movie taught me the value of respect and acceptance. Since it is about gays, I realized that we all should respect one another. We all have different opinions and points of view. We shouldn’t judge someone’s way of living just because it is completely the opposite way of ours. We should accept them because like us, they are just human who wanted to live their life with their own style and identity. Like us, they have feelings too. They would live out the best of their lives to express themselves and have fun.


It is really good to have witnessed a film like Zombadings. A must see for all the movie lovers!
