Karunungang Itim (1976)

1976 – Karunungang Itim/“Black Wisdom” (Golden Era Films)

[Release date 20th August 1976; prepared for international release by Kinavesa International entitled “The Half Body Man”, although no evidence of a release other than a one-sheet poster exists]

Director Noli Villar [Joseph Velasco, here credited as “Joseph Kong”, is listed on the international poster as co-director]   

Cast Ramon Zamora, Lotis Key, Leopoldo Salcedo, Rosemarie Gil, Tange

FANTASY/HORROR/KUNG FU?

NOTES by Ronald Rios: “…the late Ramon Zamora battles a tiktik, aswang na humahaba ang dila (witch that extends its tongue) to eat his victims especially pregnant women. It's surreal, period piece, fun to watch and his leading lady was the gorgeous Lotis Key.”
