D' Survivors opens in cinemas on April 28

Shoe Potato:

Adolf Alix has been known and recognized for writing / directing serious films like Manila, Donsol, Kadin, Batanes, Kahapon May Dalawang Bata and Homecoming, among others until he shocked the entertainment world by doing the horror comedy film D' Anothers of Vhong Navarro and Toni Gonzaga.  Please don't get me wrong, he shocked the industry the positive way because even he's known for the serious stuff, his movie made everyone laugh and made Star Cinema smile as it was a certified blockbuster.

And then a few months ago, I heard he's shooting another comedy film -- D' Survivors.  And without a doubt, I knew another comedy hit from our school mate is in the making.

Here's more info about the movie:

On their way to Babuyan Island for a pictorial, a group of models finally finds themselves stranded in an unknown island. Chaos reigns as they try to survive there along with other survivors.

Directed by Adolf Alix  and produced by Astral Productions, D' Survivors, as the title suggest, is a comedy film inspired by the hit reality TV program, where contestants are challenged physically, mentally and emotionally to survive in a remote island setting. The movie shot in Caramoan Islands, Camarines Sur, takes on the same path but this time in a hilarious set-up.

The cast includes K Brosas, Rocky Salumbides, Evelyn Vargas, Tetay Ocampo and Lemuel Pelayo, and introducing Brazilian models Daniel Matsunaga, Fabio Ide and Akihiro Sato.

D' Survivors is showing on April 28 and its premiere night is on April 26 at SM Megamall 1 at 7 PM.

 

Here's the official full trailer:

Director Adolfo Alix, Jr. was recently cited by The Hollywood Reporter in its Next Generation Asia List as one of the 20 young movers in the Asian entertainment region (filmmakers below 35).
