Watch out for that seemingly expensive looking antique handbag, it might be cursed! Silly as it might sound, that is what seems to be main evil that would linger in the entirety of the film. A malevolent spirit or a curse in a bag or in whatever antique object offers the film showcase. Antiques have always been used as a good source of curse or evil in various horror film and that is what Segunda Mano is all about. Of course, the fun in such preposterous idea is how each victim gets to be killed by such evils.

Segunda Mano is probably guilty of being using second (third or how many times) hand concepts that most horror films have been using from day one. But guess what, even if that is the case, this film will still get a good number of Filipino movie goers watching it this Metro Manila film Festival 2011. Who does not want to see that ever sophisticated and controversial sister of the Philippines President Noynoy Aquino get smothered by water. That scene alone is funny and would convince me to go check it just for the laughs hahaha. Seriously speaking, given to choose only one horror film to watch this MMFF 2011, I do not think Segunda Mano will be my choice. Well, that is me, but many may beg to differ.
