This is the ultimate insiders' account of a faraway backlot where stunt men came cheap, plot was obsolete and the make-up guy was packin' heat!

Strap yourselves in – and join us for a non-stop Filipino femme-fest all the way from a jungle backlot where stuntmen came cheap, plot was obsolete and the make-up lady was packin’ heat! Umbrella Entertainment is proud to present the uncut feature-length version of this non-stop Filipino femme-fest.
