Silent night, holy night. Not a blockbuster hit, but probably the best entry in the Metro Manila Film Festival 2022. 


Nanahimik Ang Gabi follows the story of secret lovers trapped in a secluded place far from the city. Surprises and unexpected revelations await both as the night deepens and this is where the exciting factor of the film happens. I assure you nothing can prepare you for how they introduce the premise up to the conclusion of this wonderful masterpiece. 


Really a ‘Promising-Young-Woman-like’ motion picture.


The ensemble is crazy. The film only has 3 main characters moving in a single setting, but they still managed to carry the story on a completely different level. Let’s say it was definitely a roller coaster ride whilst watching the movie, it will leave you at the edge of your seat trying to guess what will happen next or what horrifying scenes will unfold, the scare level would surely eclipse that of the horror movies. 


Ian Veneracion lying on the ground delivering his terrifying lines while covered in blood was astounding, Heaven Paralejo being so emotional and profound was so outstanding she deserving of a Best Actress award, and oh, don’t get me started with the great Mon Confiado’s character who was so terrifying and startling that will keep you on the edge of your seat. 


Imagine with just a minimal character and a minimal set everything went just so perfect about the movie, and I want to give the biggest appreciation to the director, Shugo Praico, whom I barely knew until now.


Nanahimik ang Gabi is probably my best entry amongst all Metro Manila Film Festival entries this year. It has put the local thriller and action genre on a pedestal that is hard to reach. Something that we should all be proud of.


Rating: 4.5/5
