Shake Rattle & Roll 2k5 (2005)
The second installment of episodes from this classic horror series scares up even more screams than the first. In "Poso," a wealthy client tempts a hack occultist out of retirement. In "Aquarium," a family moves into their new home only to discover that the previous occupants left something terrible behind. And in "Lihim," a pregnant woman fears for the life of her unborn child.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
This one's the seventh instalment of the endless SHAKE RATTLE & ROLL franchise. It's another Filipino horror trilogy with a mix of stories that thankfully get better as they go along here. The supposed comedic antics of the first tale, about a fake medium encountering an otherworldly presence, are a bitter pill to swallow and best fast-forwarded. The second story is about a monster in an aquarium and more lively, although it does have one of the most annoying kids I've seen in a film lately. The last story is about a guy and his pregnant wife who are terrorised by creepy demons who look like the monsters in, well, DEMONS. It's pretty scary at times and well worth a look, if you can get past the initial disappointment of that lacklustre first tale.
