Jean Marc Cordero as Sarimanok
There was a clear lack of direction here, if not a lack of vision. Seemingly bound to the conventions of the comic book, the projector was used to explain every change in setting and to provide sound effects. Yes, ala Batman cartoons with Kapow! Bang! as backdrop. The set and lights could’ve created the sense of dystopia, but the costumes were far from dystopic—in fact much of it was painfully archetypal: Lam-ang in a woven cape, Urduja in green with insect horns, Lagrimas in Marian blue, Dilim in flowing black.
