Temptation Island (1980) by Regal Films is a cult classic. Whenever people ask me what my guilty pleasure of a Pinoy flick is, this one always comes out on top. And why not? It’s a campy, funny and altogether delightful movie about beauty queens stranded on a deserted island. Add to that the presence of three sexy men in the mix plus one loud-mouth gay pageant socialite & a dumb maid and voila! This Joey Gosiengfiao-directed film was such a joy to watch over and over again.
The original cast included Dina Bonnevie (as Dina Espinola), Jennifer Cortez (as Suzanne Reyes), Bambi Arambulo (as Bambi Belisario), Azenith Briones (as Azenith Tobias), Deborah Sun (as the maid Maria), Ricky Belmonte (as Ricardo), Alfie Anido (as Umberto), Domingo Sabado (as Umberto) and Jonas Sebastian (as Joshua, the pageant chaperone).
Memorable parts I can distinctly remember were a fantasy scene in the high sands where the ladies were shown licking a gigantic ice cream cone to cool off the heat and a cannibalistic sequence where they had to eat the flesh of a dead companion to survive.
Let me help you reminisce a bit about the original Temptation Island via this video:

Marian Rivera is picked to head the cast of the Temptation Island remake.
So far, the names circulating in the grapevine to be part of the cast are Marian Rivera, Heart Evangelista, Lovi Poe and Solenn Heussaff (for the roles of the beauty queens), Pokwang (for the role of the maid), Jake Cuenca and Aljur Abrenica (for the roles of Alfredo and Umberto, respectively) and John Lapus (for the Joshua role). I’m still unsure as to who might play the Ricky Belmonte part, but Zoren Legaspi would be a good choice for the same.
Now if I had to do some matches for the 4 leading ladies, Marian should do Azenith. Heart should do Dina. Lovi should do Suzanne, with Solenn for Bambi. Wouldn’t that be just perfect?
If you were a teener during the 80s, you will definitely be familiar with Temptation Island. Otherwise, believe me when I say that this should be a very interesting remake if done right. 😉

Are you ready for a near-overload of horror movies this Christmas? Aside from “Dalaw”, the 12th installment of the Shake Rattle and Roll series will be out to scare the wits out of you.
The trilogy is made up of the following stories:
Mamanyika is about a girl, Abigail, who finds an old doll in a cemetery. She brings it home and it became her playmate. Unknown to her, the doll turns out to be an evil entity and starts killing people in the household. Starring Shaina Magdayao, Ricky Davao, Elijah Alejo and Rita Avila. This one marks the directoral debut of actor Zoren Legaspi.
The second part is called Punerarya starring Carla Abellana, Mart Escudero, Gaby dela Merced, Nash Aguas and Sid Lucero which tells the story of Dianne, a grade school teacher looking for a way to supplement her short income. She accepts a tutoring job for the children of a man who owns a funeral parlor and lives in mysterious house. When she senses that some bizarre elements are surrounding the house, she must find a way to get out before it is too late. Indie film director Jerrold Tarog helms this one.
The third episode Isla Enkanto is directed by Topel Lee. It stars Andi Eigenmann playing the role of Andrea, a girl who escapes to a private island with her two friends after breaking up with her boyfriend. While in there, she meets Ray, a man whose girlfriend disappeared when they were on vacation two years ago. When an unknown group of entities begin to haunt Andrea, Ray also found out that they are the ones responsible for his girlfriend’s disappearance. Now they must leave the place or they might not make it alive.
Shake Rattle and Roll 12 is part of Regal Entertainment, Inc.’s 50th Anniversary Offering.
