Barely three weeks pa bago mag-showing ay ikinakalampag na ng Star Cinema ang kanilang 16th anniversary offering, ang Villa Estrella, not just another creepy movie that hits the theaters on July 1.
Starring Shaina Magdayao, Jake Cuenca, Geoff Eigenmann, and Maja Salvador, kuwento ito ng magba-barkada who lie off to a resort villa not realizing that it is inhabited by disturbed souls. What is even more disturbing ay ang kasaysayang nakapaloob sa lugar kung saan ang sinumang galing doon ay hindi na muling nakakabalik in one piece.
Mula ito sa direksyon ni Rico Ilarde, who is a looker. He is as young as his fresh ideas and admits to specializing in horror genre.

Speaking of anniversary, nakapangingilabot na nataong 37th wedding year ng mag-asawang Robert at Asuncion Barrameda (June 10) nang muling maibalik sa kanila ang nawawalang anak na si Ruby Rose Barrameda-Jimenez, who had mysteriously disappeared on March 14, 2007.
Wala na yatang mga angkop na salitang maaaring gamitin upang ilarawan ang paraan ng pamamaslang kay Ruby Rose, that only the most heartless of heartless could carry out such a grisly murder.
Tandang-tanda ko pa nung nai-feature namin ang kuwentong ito, mula na rin sa panawagan ng kapatid ng biktima na si Rochelle, sa The Ricky Lo Exclusives in an episode that I entirely wrote. Kinailangan pa naming kumunsulta sa isang eksperto sa pakikipag-ugnayan sa mga namayapa (clairvoyant) upang malaman lang ang kinaroroonan at sinapit ni Ruby Rose.
Since her mystery-shrouded disappearance, hindi pa rin sumuko ang pamilya Barrameda, hoping that one day Ruby Rose would be happily reunited with her loved ones. Hindi nga lang akalain ng mga magulang ni Ruby Rose that what was supposed to be a nice wedding present turned out to be their daughter’s lifeless body.
Nakikiisa po ang inyong lingkod sa pagkamit ng hustisya ng mga kaanak ni Ruby Rose.
