The last train out of Manila becomes an all-you-can-eat buffet for something hungry.
Thirteen passengers take the last trip of the Light Rail Transit (LRT) at almost midnight. To make things worse, the train stops right in the middle of an abandoned train station, and with no means of communication, they have no way to get into the street below, all the while a mutant heart-eating eyeless monster pursues them and hunts them one by one.
Practical Effects
That eyeless monster suit is gloriously grotesque low-budget craftsmanship.
Production
Genuine abandoned station location sells the impossible escape premise.
Acting
Manilyn Reynes anchors the chaos with scream-queen commitment.
Director
Michael Tuviera
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
LRT was part of the 2006 Metro Manila Film Festival, where horror entries traditionally dominated December box offices against Hollywood competition.
The film weaponizes real Filipino commuter anxiety—Manila's actual LRT system has a notorious reputation for breakdowns and overcrowding that makes the supernatural threat almost plausible.
